Although the trip to UBC proved fruitless, I didn't completely hate the entire trip or regret it. We had a really good lunch at the Magnolia House, where we drank sweet tea and had a meat 'n three. I may not talk like a southerner or look like one, but gravy and fried okra runs in my veins. The best thing about living in the south is the massive amount of fatty, delicious food. BBQ pork, collards, candied yams, green beans, country fried steak, and oh god, the cornbread. Is your mouth watering yet?
And no trip is complete without a photo of Georgia red clay. This is the soil that's responsible for cotton, tobacco, and peaches.

Gorgeous white blazer. Looks kind of like mine...! I really love the back drop to these photos, and the one with all the food is making me salivate, it's a little embarrassing. There really is nothing like authentic Southern food.
ReplyDeleteI haven't read Game of Thrones, but I've heard so many good things about it that it's on my list of books to tackle. Currently rereading East of Eden, an old fav.
ughhhh southern food for life. i'm glad you escaped the weird accent. even though i spent only 5 years of my life down south, i have a twang with certain words and it's embarrassing...

I envy your ear placement. Strangest comment ever?
ReplyDeleteLove, love southern food and miss them terribly! I live in ATL for 7 years and now back to my native country in SE Asia. Wish I can have cornbread, brunswick stew, BBQ pork and fried okra right now!
