Mango this sounds so exciting. You will be a wonderful addition to the community there. I hope it all goes smoothly and the bittersweet part quickly becomes only sweet.

May you have many wonderful years of happiness in the sand.

Whoops, just assumed it was plastic. As long as it's not inflatable, those things are just rediculous. Sounds like yours might be too "classy" for the south. :funn:

Same here!

:scratch: Are you sure your a southerner? I don't even ask for diet coke or diet pepsi in a restaurant, it's so much easier to just say diet. I hate being lectured that someone doesn't carry one cola product and then I have to say diet (insert cola product of choice).

Are you sure YOU are a southerner?! In Georgia, servers know better than to lecture. The franchises that serve Pepsi (Pizza Hut & Taco Bell come to mind) generally apologize, as in "I'm sorry...we have Pepsi products. Is that alright?"

I disagree with this and I always have. If I want a Coke, I ask for a Coke. (My Dad will ask for a Co-Cola.) If I want a Diet Mountain Dew, I ask for a Diet Mountain Dew...

You're right about that. I just was referring to the fact that when I make a grocery list and we need any soft drinks, I put the generic "Cokes" on my list, as I have done on the Seagrove Publix map that I've posted.;-)

The only thing I don't like about Nuevo Laredo Cantina in Atlanta is that we're forced to either drink Pepsi products or alcohol. I go with the latter unless I'm driving.

When I was a child, I was allowed to get cokes at restaurants -- a big treat. So, I would tell the waitress I wanted a coke. And I would wait for her to tell me what type of cokes they had. (I was hoping she'd say Fanta Grape or Orange!) A few times the waitress wouldn't ask me what type I wanted and would bring me a regular Coke. It only took a few times of such grave disappointment for me to learn the difference.

:shock: I don't think i've ever even tried to order something other than a margarita there. . . I guess it's not a coincidence that I don't choose to go there if I am the driver!
