Guest guest Posted December 4, 2001 Report Share Posted December 4, 2001 Hey Butch, Some 'a these we used back in N. England!!!!!!!!! And, since I did live in Alabama ( and loved it once I figured out what the hell everyone was saying........), for a few months at least, till the second Ex became an Ex and since it (Bama) was the state he was from, I left - cried my eyes out cuz I loved the place! Course this was back over 20 years ago, and somehow I think we may even end up somewhere's bout's back there. Son was little then, he had a suth'ren accent in two days - me.. I was " " " " The Yankee " , didn't know what in heck they were saying...........stuff like: Fixin to go to the KMart - HUH???????????? Fixin??? Just go! ROFL - till it started sounding normal. Been savin and using bacon grease for years, you're right - great flavor!!!!!!! Taught from my mother-in-law all kinds of good stuff to cook and we didn't HAVE or NEED a microwave! Boiled peanuts, fresh pecans right off the trees, three growing seasons, collards and turnip greens (bacon grease or if ya run out, a ham bone works good too........), hush puppies, grits (son loves em, I don't), country fried steak, fried chicken, fried everythings, laid back place, found out soda wasn't called soda (you're right, they didn't understand me either at first) found out it was called Pop, UNLESS it was Coke, then it was Coke, all others were called Pop, adding the flavor after that. Grinders are Subs (they are here too) - pizza.....just wasn't! Kids called you Ma'am and Sir, or even if they were big, still called their Mothers and Father's Momma and Daddy - loved it, loved it, loved it! Really nice place, if'n they don't like yankees, they'll tell ya RIGHT up front and give you a chance to prove you're ok, then you're not a real yankee anymore. Can you tell I miss it? Hugs, Stay safe, be careful.......y'all........ Marilyn Butch Owen wrote: > Yo Marilyn, > > > ROFLMAO!!!!!!!!!!!!
