I went to PA one time, and everyone looked at me like I was speaking a foreign language. The worst thing about my trip up north was I couldn't find sweet tea anywhere.

One southernism I remember gave my cousin (who was raised in Wisconsin) trouble was "over yonder".

I am an apostate southern gal. Don't like grits.

Louisville to mark the boundary of the grits line.

Yanks don't seem to know what sweet milk is either.

I am from Georgia and I married a Nebraskan. My parents came up to visit me in Omaha and my mother ordered sweet tea in a restaraunt and got the funniest looks.
