SOUTHERN FRIENDS: Always bring food and eat yours too.

FRIENDS: Will say “hello”.
SOUTHERN FRIENDS: Will give you a big hug and a kiss.

SOUTHERN FRIENDS: Call your parents Mom and Dad

FRIENDS: Have never seen you cry.
SOUTHERN FRIENDS: Cry with you.

FRIENDS: Will eat at your dinner table and leave.
SOUTHERN FRIENDS: Will spend hours there, talking, laughing, and just being together.

FRIENDS: Know a few things about you.
SOUTHERN FRIENDS: Could write a book with direct quotes from you.

FRIENDS: Will leave you behind if that’s what the crowd is doing.
SOUTHERN FRIENDS: Will whip the whole crowd that left you!!

    Southern friends will also feed you and your whole family, then send you home with the best Hot Jam this side of the Mason-Dixon and homemade bread to slather it on. 🙂

    Julie,You are SO funny! I guess that means you liked the hot jam 🙂 Be careful – it can be addicting…my oldest son is still trying to get me to can 52 jars of the hot strawberry every year ….just for HIM! I think not :)Blessings,cheri
