Dang JB, got my mouth watering for some good old Southern cooking and hospitality now!  I'm a Northerner raised by a momma with Southern root. We are heading down Southern GA way for the holiday to visit my folks and introduce my beautiful wife of 5 months to other relatives and will hopefully get some hush puppies, fried green tomatoes, okra, greens and what ever the water provides!  
By the way, it snowed here yesterday and we're looking at getting some today too.  Gotta love Michigan!
