Foodies
* So, SOMEONE sent me an email and said she was counting negative points in her diet for drinking "pop". Pop. I love it.
I call it "Soda" because other words have always bothered me. Now, in my stomping grounds, the name "Coke" is used for everything from Pepsi and Dr Pepper to 7-up and Sunkist. Ummm, remember Delaware Punch? Do they even make that anymore?
* Dutch Baby - before visiting my pal Tzav, I had never seen nor heard of such a critter. Is this a northern thing? Are they exclusive to the great Northwest? Thus far, every single person I've asked about it had never heard of it. Now everyone wants to make them.
Ladies and gentlemen, I give you.....a dutch baby
* Tea - around here, unless you specifically request hot tea, you'll always get sweetened ice tea. That's just the rules.
* Fried Pickles - I understand that they're not quite as common in the north. Why is that? Maybe they are a healthier bunch than we are? I don't know, but they are a staple in every average southern restaurant.
* Italian Sodas Yeah - now you're cookin' with grease! This was also something I was introduced to while visiting my Northwestern pal. NOW I'm finding them all over the place, but I've yet to try one. I'm kinda picky about my drink mixers lol. I've seen a lot of recipies online and they were exactly like hers, I just gotta find the syrup. So, apparently this one isn't just for a waaaaaay up thar, it's for down here too. I never saw them in Mississippi, or at least not that I am aware of.
