I think that's CMT, Country Music Television, but maybe there's another one. I love GAC, Great American Country, because the name just cracks me up.

Please let me make a correction, not about the spells though. It's GRITS (Girls Raised in the South.) I have a shirt to prove it.

Kentucky has always struck me as pretty southern. That much bourbon and that many horses have to count for something.

The sundresses have made their way north of the Mason-Dixon line, and even a bit of tan, too... Oh my.

If you get to the Waffle House (the one on the right), you've gone too far.
When we lived in Deep South, Alabama, people were always giving us directions that included, "go past where the post office used to be," and "take a right at where the piggly wiggly burned down."

As if we would know these places? We just moved there! That's why we were asking for directions!

Did you ever see the Chevy Chase movie "Funny Farm" Frickin' HI-larious. But one of my favorite parts is when the movers get directions from the little old man. He used all of those classics. Then, he said, "Or, you could just go down a mile and go over the wooden bridge." As the guys drive away, he says, "but I wouldn't go that way if I was you."

It may be Southern, but it also has a LOT of Midwest in it as well.

Oh... I guess I meant Harrison Barnes.

Sorry for the confusion. ;)

The column I read from CathyCA is missing one obvious Southern reference ...

I did graduate school in St. Louis, and LOVE the Midwest. The good thing now about living in Lexington is that it has both a Southern AND a Midwest feel to it.

Truth be told: I married a Southern woman, but she doesn't do most of the things in Cathy's list. Having said that, she asked me last night if she could fix some dinner. And when she gets mad, she does tend to drop off the g's in her "-ing's."

Cathy: did I see no mention of cheese straws?

Oh my! It's not a proper party if there aren't any cheese straws!

Last night, 8-x and I ate pimiento cheese on crackers. That's another southern food treat.

I haven't run across anything on midwestern, northeastern or west coast women. I'd be interested in reading it if anyone can find something similar to what I posted.

What would be the proper Southern drink to accompany said pimiento cheese on crackers?
