"Southernisms" and the Southern Lady

[Yogiman]

Sugar on grits has to be a mortal sin! Much like eating greens without cornbread or rice without gravy. I am of the firm belief that the 11th. commandment says "Thou Shall Not:
1. Put sugar on grits
2. Eat greens without cornbread
3. Eat rice without gravy on it

Now I don't ask anyone else to subscribe to my belief but that is what I believe.

I am most certain ParsonsWife could verify my beliefs.

However, there is a recipe out there for garlic cheese grits that is some kind of fine eating.

We eat grits virtually every day at our homestead. We have to buy them in 5 lb. bags like cornmeal or flour. Like'em!

I eat cheese on grits, but I never saw it until I was about 14. I've seen lots eat stewed tomatoes on grits, but I save that for my rice.

 

[chickiepoo]

Oh! Now these ways are all breakfast right? For later in the day, shrimp and grits!

one of my favorite meals is blue cheese grits and salmon

 

[chickiepoo]

Sounds good RayP. I have had the grits with salmon, but never tried the blue cheese. Gotta try that one.

That does sound rather interesting. I know DH wouldn't touch it, though!

I really really think I am suppose to be a 'southern girl'. I just happen to be jinks with being born in WI...Which is only southern from Canada...

When I went to Mississippi everyone down there was so nice. I actually had people compliment me on my accent..They would say I have the most beautiful and interesting WI accent. I didn't even know people from WI had accents let alone me...
Although I did have one or two people down there ask if I was from Canada....

I truely love the 'south'. I really think I was meant to be live 'down south'.....

Maybe the big 'wizard of oz' tornado can come and pick up my house and move me and my animals there....
"Look Dodge......I don't think we're in WI anymore!!!"

Mississippi and Lousiana here we come!!!!!!
(sometimes I crack myself up....)

Hey, come on down! Ya'll are more than welcome. The more the merrier.
You do understand that before you cross that Mason Dixon Line that you are required to be vaccinated, dipped, and wormed. Might even require to be spayed or neutered, which ever applies.

Just thought I'd throw that in.

I thought I'd throw this in as well:

A real Southerner doesn't eat instant grits, either!! However, for the record, I do like instant grits, but I have the kind like Yogi, that comes in a bag.

How are yankees and hemorrhoids similar?

When they come down and go back up they're ok. It's when they come down and stay down they're a pain in the butt.

HAHA. Funny joke and very true.
