Mama knew were to get the best mayhaw jelly. Wonder if my sister knows. I'll ask. If she does, I'll see if she can bring some when she visits. Then you can come get a jar!

Mama and Pa (my step daddy) made the most potent Muscadine wine. The first time I had it...it tasted just like grape juice.

Until you stood up. Oh boy. My mama laughed her butt of at me that night!

Major hugs! Hey Wolfy! We will have to get you some cornbread when you are down here!

You are so right. I miss that place. Luckily I'm only about an 8 or 9 hour drive. I plan on going for a weekend next year.

I used to live next door to a family with a fig tree...well one door down anyway. That tree was GREAT for hiding in!
