Fried Dill Pickles are a delicacy.

Outfits like this are totally acceptable.

Every good Southerner has their own headlamp, ya know.

    I love fried pickles! With ranch dressing too.

      You mean you don’t have curbside toilets in your neighborhood?

    The thing I miss most about the south is fried pickles. And sun. I miss fried pickles and sun together.

      Whenever we move away from here, I’ll miss the fried pickles, too. I’m sorry you don’t have sun where you live! :) That would make me sad.

    Fried pickles are the most amazing food ever invented…and they are nowhere to be found where I live.

    so sad.

    I am drooling looking at your picture.

    Please excuse me while I go clean off my keyboard!

      The truly are amazing, aren’t they?

      Each bite tastes as yummy as the last.

      I’m sorry for your lack of fried pickle-age.

    And that outfit is one of the many reasons I love Tennessee.

    Fried pickles are one of them, too.

    And the friendliness of the people. I have never met such friendly people. Shoot, look they leave their toilets right on the curb for you in case you’re passing by and need to take a tinkle.

    That is one fashion forward child. I love the shoes, they really complete the look.

    Now I need to fry pickles this weekend. The end.
