1- Possums sleep in the middle of the road with their feet in the air.
2- There are 5,000 types of snakes and 4,998 live in Georgia.
3- There are 10,000 types of spiders. All 10,000 live in Georgia plus a couple no one's seen before.
4- Squirrels will eat anything.
5- Unknown critters love to dig holes under tomato plants.
6- Raccoons will test your crop of melons and let you know when they are ripe.
7- If it grows, it sticks; if it crawls, it bites.
8- Onced and twiced are words.
9- It is not a shopping cart, it is a buggy.
10- Fire ants consider your flesh as a picnic.
11- People actually grow and eat okra.
12- Fixinto is one word.
13- There is no such thing as "lunch". There is only dinner and then there is supper.
14- Ice-tea is appropriate for all meals and you start drinking it when you're two. We do like a little tea with our sugar!

16- Jeet? Is actually a phrase meaning, "Did you eat?'
17- You don't PUSH buttons, you MASH them.
18- You don't have to wear a watch because it doesn't matter what time it is. You work until you're done or it's too dark to see.
July 11 You Know you're from Georgia if:You know you're from Georgia if:
You measure distance in minutes.
You've ever had to switch from "heat" to "A/C" in the same day.
You use "fix" as a verb, Example: I'm fixing to go to the store."
All the festivals across the state are named after a fruit, vegetable, grain, insect or animal.
You install security lights on your house and garage and leave both unlocked.
You know what a "DAWG" is.
You carry jumper cables in your car... for your OWN car.
You only own four spices: salt, pepper, tabasco and ketchup.
The local papers cover national & international news on one page but require 6 pages for local gossip & sports.
You think that the first day of deer season is a national holiday.
You find 100 degrees fahrenheit "a little warm".
You know all 4 seasons: Almost Summer, summer, still summer and Christmas.
You know whether another Georgian is from Atlanta, North or South Georgia as soon as they open their mouth.
Going to Wal-Mart is a favorite past time known as "goin' Wal-Martin" or "off to Wally World".
You describe the first cool snap (below 70 degrees) as good pinto-bean weather.
A carbonated soft drink isn't a soda, cola or pop... it's a coke, regardless of brand or flavor. Example: "What kinda coke do you want?"
Fried catfish is the other white meat.
We don't need no stinking driver's ed... If our Mama says we can drive, we can drive.
You understand these jokes and forward them to your friends from Georgia. (And those who just wish they were). Not EVERYONE can be a Georgian, it's an art form and a gift from God!
April 09 Cooking DiaryThis Week's Cooking Diary
Monday-
I decided I was going to cook for my husband Danny. Today, I made an angel food cake. The recipe said to beat 12 eggs separately. The neighbors were nice enough to loan me some extra bowls.
Tuesday-
Danny wanted fruit salad for supper. The recipe said to serve without dressing. So I didn't dress. What a surprise when Danny brought a friend home for supper.
Wednesday-
A good day for rice. The recipe said to wash thoroughly before steaming the rice. It seemed kind of silly, but I took a bath anyway. I can't say it improved the rice any.
Thursday-
Today, Danny asked for salad again. I tried a new recipe. It said to prepare the ingredients, then toss on a bed of lettuce an hour before serving. Danny asked me why I was rolling around in the garden.
Friday-
I found an easy recipe for cookies. It said to put the ingredients in a bowl and beat it. There must be something wrong with the recipe. When I got back, everything was the same as when I left.
Saturday-
Danny did the shopping today and brought home a chicken. He asked me to dress it for Sunday. For some reason he keeps counting to ten.
Sunday-
We had some people over for dinner. I wanted to serve a roast, but all I had was hamburger. Suddenly, I had a flash of genius, I put the hamburger in the oven and set the controls for roast. It still came out hamburger, much to my disappointment.
GOOD NIGHT DEAR DIARY
This has been a very exciting week. I am eager for tomorrow to come so I can try out a new recipe on Danny. If I can talk him into buying a bigger oven, I would like to surprise him with a Chocolate Moose. March 01 Southern WomenSouthern Women

February 13 BitchologyBITCHOLOGY
When I stand up for Myself and my beliefs, they call me a bitch.
When I stand up for those I love, they call me a bitch.
When I speak my mind, think my own thoughts or do things my own way, they call me a bitch.
Being a bitch means I won't compromise what's in my heart. It means I live my life MY way. It means I won't allow anyone to step on me.
When I refuse to tolerate injustice and speak against it, I am defined as a bitch.
The same thing happens when I take time for myself instead of being everyone's maid, or when I act a little selfish. It means I have the courage and strength to allow myself to be who I truly am and won't become anyone else's idea of what they think I "should" be. I am outspoken, opinionated and determined. I want what I want and there is nothing wrong with that!
So try to stomp on me, try to douse my inner flame, try to squash every ounce of beauty I hold within me. You won't succeed.
And if that makes me a bitch, so be it. I embrace the title and am proud to bear it.
B = Babe I = In T = Total C = Control of H = Herself
