I dreamed about boiled peanuts this morning. I'd found some woman with a big stash of them and I was buyin' 'em all, by god.

Guess they don't have those up north? My husband was shocked when he went to Minnesota on a canoe trip and couldn't get sweet tea.
Heh...

Hehe, yeah! I'm not much of an iced tea drinker, but I've heard that from a lot of people. And no, come to think of it, I have rarely seen boiled peanuts outside of Mississippi and Alabama. When I lived in Virginia, I don't think I ever saw them. Some people just don't know good.

yeah

And when they do have iced tea, it sucks. Then if you want them to refill it, they charge you for it.

or how about this. Don't know if it means as much being from Mississippi but when you go to a Mexican restaurant, they charge you for chips and salsa. There would be a revolt in Texas if they charged for chips and salsa. It is like silverware and napkins. It should just be on the table.

OMG! Now I want boiled peanuts!!!!! And I've been craving sweet tea for a week. Boiled peanuts are huge in south Georgia. People set up stands on the highway. It's great. Don't bother with those canned things, though. Nasty!

boiled peanuts = yeah, people sell it on the side of the road here in florida too.


sweat tea = Here in SoFla if you order iced tea they usually ask (sweat or unsweat) or they just bring you unsweat. I'm moving 200 miles north to central florida and there it's all sweat tea. I don't like sweat tea and it's a chore to get regular iced tea there.

Boiled peanuts are okay, but even being from a Southern family, sweetened tea is an affront to all that's holy.

I can't believe that even in Western Arkansas sweet tea is scarce. Any mention of boiled peanuts gets a bad reaction.
