Im turning into one of them!


Last night, i went to our awesome neighbors house, Eddie and Melissa's, and got another "southern" lesson. The first one was how to gut a fish in the kitchen sink, but butter on it and bbq it! I didnt participate it that one of course. But last night I learned to string beans and fry squash in flour and corn meal. Then Melissa sent me home with a crap load of produce from their HUGE garden that you could feed an army with and I strung beans while I talked to Shawn about our days. I think I might be liking this "southern" things a little too much. You'll know I've crossed over to the dark side when I think that eating a meal at a "cafe/diner" thats attached to a gas station is normal....until them Im going to have to rely on the folks in CA to keep me grounded.

Dark Side? Just so you know not all "southern" women think it is normal to eat at a cafe/diner attached to a gas station!
And I think it is great that you are learning how to cook and be a homemaker...you don't have to be southern to be good at those two things!
