Yes, I know. We live almost as far south as you can get in the US...but I guarantee you that this is NOT the south :) My sister came and visited recently and immediately, after 5 seconds of seeing her, I realized I miss the south! Here are the 10 things i miss the most...(don't worry south florida folks, this will be balanced out later with - 10 Things I love about south florida :)
10. Good, authentic
bar-b-que!
9. Awesome sayings/ phrases such as these - two of my favorites that I had actually heard:
"He's about as useless as a screen door on a submarine. AND
His elevator don't go all the way to the top. He's one fry short of a Happy Meal. Or, as my grandma used to say, “He don't got all what belongs to him.” All taken to mean, “He/She is crazy.”"
8. Churches on every corner
7. Cow farms, pig farms, horse farms only a
hop, skip and a jump away :)
6.
5. Seasons
4. Homemade ___________ (fill in
the blank)...biscuits, ice cream, pies, ...etc
3.
Hearing words like "tractor pulls", "pig-pickin",
"debutants", "FFA", "Ya'll", "a fixin'", "bless her
heart", and so many more :)
2. Cheerwine, Bojangles and Harris Teeter.
1. And...the number one thing I miss
about the south - the ACCEE-ANTS:)
God bless the southern culture ;)
