A Guide to The South

The South
\the 'sau'th\, noun


The place where...
Tea is sweet and accents are sweeter.
Summer starts in April.
Macaroni & Cheese is a vegetable.
Front porches are wide and words are long.
Pecan pie is a staple.
Y'all is the only proper noun.
Chicken is fried and biscuits come with gravy.
Everything is Darlin'.
Someone's heart is always being blessed.


Taken from a wall plaque I recently bought...
Sweet iced tea is drunk alot. Looking forward to an early summer!
Mac 'n' cheese is everywhere and everyone seems to like it, especially Luke...just wish it WAS actually a vegetable!
For someone like me, who LOVES pecan pie, it's a little slice of heaven!
Y'all doing well? Come on Y'all...ad infinitum!
Haven't done fried chicken...yet, but you can actually buy deep fryers specifically for whole chickens and turkeys!
Biscuits are actually similar to scones and are a Southern breakfast staple. Instead of strawberries, jam and cream Cornish style, they do indeed serve it with some pale and uninspiring gravy kind of substance, I'm just not brave enough!
Everything, everyone and especially you is a 'Darlin' (love that!)
In everyday conversation your heart is well and truly and constantly being blessed.
