Dear My Darling Kelly at Housewife Savant,
Still troubled over this post, I did a little research for you. Back in 1861 when North and South really mattered, they drew a map so there were no misunderstandings on which states were North and which states were South. This is the intelligent Yankee version even, as the hillbillies from the South, are still to this day not intelligent enough to post a picture online.
Those folks that you speak so ill of are Yankees, not Southerners.
I am ashamed of my comment on your blog, over this post, and I apologize if I was rude.
A true southern belle would have never even responded.
We all have bad days.
We all open mouth insert foot.
We all have a choice to follow or not to follow.
Merry Merry Merry Christmas.
SOUTHERN BELLES UNITE AND GET TO THIS POST AND COMMENT! THE YANKEES ARE HAVING A HAY-DAY OVER THERE!
Love,
The Bumpkin

I wouldn't have apologized for your remarks.
I think she deserved a lot more said, but educating someone (she obviously needs education - and prozac wouldn't hurt either) who talks and acts like they are better than everybody else is pretty close to impossible.
WOW! I just read that post - I am actually from the area that she is talking about - Southern Illinois. WOW! She's quite a piece of work!
Can I say b!tch? Thanks for sharing. Made the last hour of my day here at work interesting! :)
Illinois...south? Yeah...needs just a tad more edumacation.
Merry Happy to you!!!
Girl, I saw your comment on another blog. So, first things first, CONGRATS!!!!!
Secondly, I am southern. I love being southern. I am PROUD to be southern. That post just fired me up. I had to comment. I tried to be as gracious as possible.
This is what I said, "Hmmmm, I found this post through a reference on another blog. I understand that you have the right to say what you wish. After all, it is YOUR blog. However, I am from the South. And, I do NOT fall into any of these so-called stereotypes you have listed on this post. First off, Southern Illinois is still considered northern if you go back to the history of when the actual North and South were divided. I just think that what you were trying to say was not conveyed the way you intended it. It came across as offensive and ignorant. As we in the South say, "Bless your heart." Thought I'd share it with ya in case she deletes it.
Wow. How rude is SHE?? And full of herself, too.
I think she has some insecurity issues. People who act so harshly toward others usually do.
We all know SOUTHERN girls would never act like that! :)
