"8) A Cajun is likely to speak what furrin' language?(Acadian French)"Some would argue that English IS a furrin' language west of Baton Rouge ... others (more cruel than I) would point out that a cajun can't even speak their first furrin' language yet.

"Hard peanuts are roasted. One boils peanuts to soften them in brine."
Maybe someone can conform this but I think "Hard Peanuts" may be a localized term for "boiled peanuts".
I've always heard them called them "boiled peanuts".
