Honey, I don't know what y'all are talkin' 'bout. I am a Southern girl and I hate gravy, grits, biscuits (except the canned ones), brown beans, and okra. However, if all y'all git a chancet, try them there deep fried dill pickles. Ther delicious. I git'em whenever I can and damn (correct pronunciation: Day-um) if I cain't stop eatin'em 'til they're all gone. Jist thinkin' 'bout it makes me hongry nuff to eat the north side of a south-bound goose.
All y'all take care.
I love biscuits but I can't make them.
Mamma used to measure everything in her hand and they always came out perfect.
I have tried and tried and the only thing I make is rocks. My husband says , it ain't fair to throw em to the birds, makes it to easy for cats to catch 'em.
Pilsbury in a can for me.
The trick is to barely mix it, put everything in the bowl and when it's moist then it's mixed. Overworking it makes it tough and turns into rocks...which we have been known to keep for throwing at folks who get silly.
I always heard it as, "Hold my beer and watch this!"
I generally try to avoid travel above the Mason Dixon line.
They seem to think I speak a foreign language.
"The worst thing about my trip up north was I couldn't find sweet tea anywhere."
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.
"I love biscuits but I can't make them."
My grandmother (who is from Arkansas) makes homemade biscuits and CHOCOLATE "gravy" for breakfast!
I know it sounds gross, but it's very very good.
