Southern Beer Drinkers??

[PAUL161]

Why is it that most people from the North think that Southerners only drink beer?

We drink wine also! <span style="font-weight: bold">SO THERE!</span>

Hey! We have a set of wine glasses just like that!

 

[GregW]

And your wine bottles match the glasses. I spent three months in Greenwood Miss'sip and couldn't find a bottle with a cork in it. No whole bean coffee either. Just barbaric.

Blackburn jelly jars are multi-purpose. Beer, wine coffee, tea , etc. Should mention the jelly isn't bad either.

I guess just about every household had jelly glasses back when I was a kid. Mom wouldn't buy jelly unless it was in a drinking glass. Money was tight back then and folks had to save wherever they could. At least we weren't down to the flower sack dresses for my sisters.

Hey Paul, I was the wearer of the flour sack dresses. You could always tell because the flowers were small, blue and pink being the most prevalent. I too remember the jelly glasses. Interestingly none of us thought we were poor and we all wanted to have the flour sack dresses. We called them grain sacks but I am sure that the flour and grain sacks were one and the same. Also have vivid memories of grandmother giving me pennies for the gum ball machine - usually they were the old worn and sometimes bent pennies but nonetheless pennies. I recall the gumballs had FORD stamped on them.

Okay enough memory lane, have to get busy and the kitchen is calling my name. I really have to teach it husband's name but that's for another day.

I'm too poor for them fancy mason jars w/ stems and handles... I only have undersized mason 1-pint jars. I've taken to purchasing a specific brand of alfredo and pesto sauces because they come in mason jars. The pesto comes in 1 cup mason jars, and the alfredo in 1 pint... I'll be cracking open the 1 cup jars tonight.
