Imitation is the Ultimate Form of Flattery
Farbeit for me to take credit for anything I come up with these days. I'm pretty certain you've gathered that I'm fairly unoriginal. I am a certified blog thief - although I prefer to think of it as easily inspired.
So in the interest of spreading love and not hate, I have taken up the challenge from Mom-101, and will attempt to find the positive about this here place I live called Mississippi. And, like the title says, I do believe imitation is quite a nice way to give a compliment.
Southern Accents
They can make anything sound friendly, so much so that I've probably been cursed out many a time and all I hear is "yeeeewwwwssssuuunnnuuvvaaabiiiiiiaaaatttccchhh" - sounds like what my daughter says to me every morning. Cheers!
Jalepeno Cheese Grits
Well, who doesn't need a little zing in the morning - and cheese tastes good on everything. Plus, a plate looks so empty with just a big sausage patty and oily eggs.
Monogrammed Purses with Pink Feathers and Beads
I can't tell you how many times I have misplaced my pink feathered purse (the nice lady even pulled it out of the McDonald's trashcan for me) so I think the monogram will help me easily pick out mine amongst the other very fancy handbags, especially since mine says SOB.
Paying for a Fancy Meal with a Check
I'm an old-school/vintage-chic/crunchy kind of gal and well, checkwriting is a dying art. Plus, isn't paper better than plastic?
That's all I have in me... Blech. I'm going to go curse out the dogs now.
*I do wish you true happiness every day!

You definately make me want to come visit. I never got the grit thing but I like sweet grits so I suppose I would be willing to give it a go!

Being a certified Yankee and having spent 3 long months (straight) in West Point, MS (one of my first assignments at my first "real" job), I can say this about MS: They do a really good job of saving their breath when they talk. I don't know anyplace else where 4 words can be combined into 1.

You're in MS? wow, i would have never guessed. this is so funny that when ever i blog about something, i go blog surfing and see alot of other people are blogging about similar things. this has happened a few times lately! but yah, them cheese grits is soundin' mighty good. :)

I'll yake one of those purses. My daughter would love it. Heck, who am I kidding...I would love it.

I'm duly flattered! And the fair state of Mississippi should be as well. Just look at it as paying it forward in honor of Say Something Nice day.
Jalapeno cheese grits...that sounds awesome. I'll trade you one of our NY bagels for some of those any day. And a good bagel too. From H&H. Sesame.

My 9 yr old daughter made the two of us matching purses. Purses with lime green sequins, purple feathers and initials sprawled across the sides. And she insists we use them. In public. Matching, grotesque purses in redneck farm country. Maybe I should consider relocation. I may be able to blend in.

lololol...you make it sound so appealing. I might just have to come visit based on the purses and grits alone.
PS: I see you got the pix working on CMP? I trust Typepad tech support did not foresake you?
