CCK you are making me blush....Camp Creek Kid said:I'm just teasing her!!
Perhaps you're right, but Chickpea is a beautiful, intelligent, European goddess who is fluent in at least 3 languages and conversational in a couple more. "Y'all" just doesn't sound right coming from her. Many people I know aspire to have Chickpea's wonderful exotic accent. She is an example of how beautiful the spoken word can be. Unfortunately, I think we are corrupting her!
There is nothing wrong with a southern accent--my husband has one and I have picked one up after living in the South for 12 years.
Anyway, I still love and admire Chickpea just as long as she doesn't start saying "all y'all" or "you'ins."

Crap- we don't have a pickup truck anymore.
