Yes, indeed. And a slice of ham.


Gonna have to qualify that with Country Ham, none of that sweet sugar coated stuff, it has to be a salt cured ham, nom nom nom an maybe some grits, and if yer nice some Beaten biscuits...

Ya drive past your favorite diner, the “Squat & Gooble” and notice boiled goobers on the sign. Ooeee! Shoo-fly pie, along with your other favorites: shrimp and dirty rice, catfish, hush puppies, shrimp, grits and gravy, candied yams, greens and ham. Lawd have mercy.

When you don't have to say "sweet" tea. You just say "tea" and they know what you mean.

And grits, by god.

When you know what "crackling cornbread" is...served with soaked dry (not canned) slow cooked pinto beans, meatloaf and homemade cole slaw (and a big spoonfull of hot chow-chow)...AND sweet tea Smile

Coleslaw on/with stuff is ok but I shudder to think what they call coleslaw in the south? I'd imagine cabbage with pork grease and sugar? Big Grin
