Sitting in a rocker on the porch at Granny's house with a glass of ice tea as a thunderstorm rolls in on a hot day and you can feel the breeze pick up and smell the rain before it comes and the temps drop to a pleasant 70 degrees as the dark clouds cover the land and lightening flashes across the sky.

Sorry Rubadub, you're right.

Really anything fried. Every year at the state fair of Texas they fry something. Twinkies, snickers. I can't remember if it was last year or the year before they fried butter.

Restrangled, a lady told me something very cute about her 3-year old g'daughter and "last nerve." She said she told her g'daughter, "you have gotten on my last nerve!" The little one looked at her and asked curiously in total innocence, "Granny, how many nerves do you have?"

Cameo, you headin' to N'awlins?

UC, that's a powerful description.

UC, that's a powerful description.

It's one of my fondest memories as a kid spending some summers at my Granny's way out in the country. Her house faced W/NW and you could see most T-storms coming. I loved watching storms roll in from the front porch.
