    It's not "plum" like the fruit. It's "plumb" like a plumb bob or a plumb line as in perfectly straight. In common uses one can substitute the word "completely" for the word "plumb" as in: I'm completely (plumb) tuckered out. Or: I completely (plumb) forgot.

      Plumb for me is the same as 'straight up.' No equivocation or qualification, just dead on, square , precise, and accurate. So that's plumb awful is that's straight up awful. Not almost, not kinda-sorta, not in the ball park (which supports 'completely').

    Anyone who doesn't understand the sliced tomato as a side... has never had a good tomato. Grocery store tomatoes have all the flavor of plastic. You need a good, home-grown, organic, heirloom tomato that was picked when it was RIPE, sliced just before serving and with a sprinkle of sea salt and freshly ground black pepper. It is the taste of summer. Literally, that's the only/best time you can get tomatoes with flavor that good.

    I worked for a US company once. At orientation, one of the big bosses had come up from Georgia and told us a story about her first time in Canada. She'd never seen a black squirrel before, so she asked her Canadian subordinates, "What the hell is wrong with that cat?" She was shocked when they told her it was a squirrel, because "I didn't know they came in black too!" They all laughed together, and now she tells that story to all new hires. She was hilarious.
    I was eventually delegated to work only with our Hawaiian and Southern customers, because I was pretty good at pronouncing Hawaiian names/words and I guess the Southerners just liked me. I can honestly say that Southern Americans were the most polite customers I have ever had. I loved working on their contracts. There was just one drawback... I picked up their accent and speech patterns. I didn't know I was doing it until I got off a call, and my coworkers were staring at me. I said, "What?" Then one of my friends mockingly responded with, "Y'all have a nice day now." And everyone laughed at me. Apparently, they'd noticed me doing it and then switching back to my normal accent and speech patterns as soon as a Hawaiian client called. I had no idea I was doing it, and they thought it was hilarious.

      I live in BC, Canada, and we have a lot of black squirrels around my town and house. I think further east they have more red (brown) and grey squirrels, though... the red squirrels are smaller. Chipmunks are cuter than squirrels anyway, and they have the lines down their backs (and are smaller). Unfortunately, we don't have Chipmunks around our town, but you can still find them if you go into forest areas close by.

Fry in bacon grease in a cast iron skillet over medium -high heat until golden brown.

      As I like mine real simple.. I just dip my slices in seasoned flour and fry until softened. (Don't care for the grit from cornmeal although I do love tomatoes in my grits. 🤓)
      This technique can also be used on squash. I also discovered that frying squash without a coating is also good eats.

    I live in Northeast Pennsylvania my entire 45 years. And NONE of these things is strange or bizarre to me. My oldest is 22, shows Appaloosa and would happily have a wedding one day in a nice barn. Where are people getting most of these sterotypes from? My husband is southern and he does 2 things that bewilder me. One, everytime a thunderstorm comes in he runs to every window and declares, "Lookin like we could be in fer a tornada!" No tornado ever comes. Second, he says "fixin" alot. "I was just fixin to take the garbage on down to the road." 🤣 God Bless 🥰

    As a Raleigh, Wake Forest woman, now transferred to Oklahoma, it is so much fun to listen to your gabbing on about the South. Thank you for this channel. Plus, I forgot about how good a banana/ mayo sandwich is. Sweet and sour mix, yummy. My biscuits and gravy are delicious. Okies for the most part use the powdered stuff from Sams. My son married an Okie would hates biscuits and had never had a good gravy. She loved my biscuits and gravy. She was confused.... And when the sirens go off here, the Okies go outside, stand on cars to see where it is. There are not many trees so we can see a far piece.
