On the Inevitability of the QUIZ

Dixie Royal
You are 88% true Southern!
You are pure belle or gentleman! You know your Jones Soda, Nehi and RC colas, your Moon Pies and sweet potato pie; you'd absolutely die without air conditioners in the summer, and you've seen Steel Magnolias and Fried Green Tomatoes (or read the book!). Your grandmother lives in an antebellum home and has a cook who makes the best fried chicken and asparagus casserole and summer squash and everything else in the world. And you know the taste of honeysuckle and the feel of grass between your toes.
You are blessed.

I have to admit to a bit of self-conscious embarasment regarding this "test". The only true requirement for Southern status is to have been born in a Southern Family while actually in the South. In which event, I am, of course 100% Southern and unabashedly proud!
