mississippians in new york city...who evah let them in?
went to the 27th Annual New York Mississippi Picnic in Central Park this afternoon.
i'm too sweaty, sticky, and disgusting to write much.
few key points:
hot
cold fried catfish, hush puppies, fries, cole slaw, fresh watermelon
sponsored by The New York Society for the Preservation of Mississippi Heritage (wha?)
live blues band
cool, green grass and clover blossoms between my toes
southern-drawled ladies
wide-brimmed hats
hot rollered hair - seriously
watermelon spitting contest
men named "preston" + "tyler"
women named "mary-chappell" + "mary-donahue"
cartwheels
sunshowers
not a confederate flag in sight
y'all come back now...ya hyah?
cold fried catfish, hush puppies, fries, cole slaw, fresh watermelon now resting like a lump in gut.
how shall i ever fit into my hoop skirt?
