That, or chili.
I would have said chili too.
I've never thought of oyster stuffing as a Southern thing, because whenever I've eaten it it's been in New England, but now I'm wondering if it came to that side of the family via Tennessee.

I'd guess it was a coastal thing, or maybe an East coastal thing.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Wow. I can't believe your bagel place doesn't have poppy seed.
And please: how can anyone think that sesame and poppy are the same thing?

I think oysters are more of a Midwestern thing, because they could only be shipped in winter so they were a treat at Thanksgiving and Christmas.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
I sent my mom the newest Upstairs Downstairs. I gave her the complete original series for her 80th birthday, so this just rounds out the set. IOmomN, we are going up to see my MiL today. Poor thing broke her wrist three weeks ago. This Sunday, she tripped on the door sill and, trying to protect her wrist, landed on her shoulder and broke it--both the ball and the socket. So her right wrist and shoulder are both broken now.
