Oh sweet Carolina, I sure do miss you these days. What I would give to taste the sweet goodness of your Cheerwine and and Cherry-lemon Sundrop slushies. I want to run barefoot like I did for 20 straight years of my life. I want to run along your beautiful beaches and bury my toes in the sand. But most of all, I miss my family and the family parties! I love Utah, don't get me wrong. There are days when I drive down 4th North and the view of Logan Temple and the most gorgeous sunset you've ever seen, setting over the Wellsville Mountains, literally takes my breath away. I love when that happens. The mountains, the church, the weather, the people, and the adventure that dwells here in Cache Valley has a special place in my heart. Now given, here in Utah, food is not like food in the South. It's actually healthy and quite good for you. Hardly anyone uses real butter and when they know you've used real butter, this look of terror comes across their face and they no longer have an appetite. They just don't know what they are missing out on. I saw my grandma cook in the kitchen everyday with real butter, everyday, at least a full stick of butter was used....and she's 99 and still kicking. In fact she is healthier than me :) and she is one amazing cook! Oh sweet Carolina, I still bleed baby blue and I sure do miss you!
