LOL!! That was cute! Sounds close to the way my husband talks. He's from a small town east of Dallas.

One of my favorite words my grandma use to use is "jeet," which translates to "did you eat."

My little brothers were raised in Texas, outside of Fort Worth. My older brother and I used to ask them 'what goes in a cone?' for laughs...

When I Get In Trouble, What Happens?
Granny would be fixin' to take a hickory switch and bust my britches!
Oh, and this from the classroom [but not involving me necessarily ]:
My fifth grade homeroom teacher would be using "the board" on a student's bodiddle. That may be the only person I've heard use that phrase, and she was a Texan! Not to mention a great Texas ak-sayent! |
