So, I am stealing this from Southern Living. They provided 25 tips for celebrating the soul of the south in their September issue. "Living in the south is the next best thing to being alive, where do people crown strawberry queens, know shrimpers by name and trade pass-along daylilies?"
Tips:
1. Welcome friends with a beautiful table
2. Enjoy the blues
3. Write a charming thank you note
4. Savor Savannah
5. Build with barn wood
6. Smoke like a pitmaster
7. Keep it sweet (tea)
8. Float a river
9. Put up pickled okra
10. Learn the Texas Two-Step
11. Master the Carolina Shag
12. Perform the Appalachia Flatfoot
13. Rediscover Mr. Faulkner (Monica already has P&B doing this)
14. Celebrate small town mayors
15. Grow an heirloom bounty
16. Gather 'Round at Galatorie's'
17. Bring back old-fashioned storytelling
18. Plant your family's tree
19. Pass along your garden's best
20. Visit the shrimp docks
21. Catch a break in Music City
22 & 23. Make a perfect apple pie
24. Honor the queen
25. Count your blessings!
