    I still can’t believe he called her “Barb.” I’m shocked. I’m from South Georgia. We would NEVER be so disrespectful as to use just her given name! We would call her “MISS Barb!” And yes, it’s “Miss” rather than “Ms.”
    That said, I love these. They are terrific.

    My mama used that look on me. And it worked every time. She also was a genius at disguising a criticism as a compliment, which is a skill more people should learn. Her admonishments were also stellar. As a little child, when I misbehaved, she would warn me that " I'm gonna take you down a buttonhole lower, young lady"! If I got too fidgety, she would say, " Sit still, sugar, you're like a worm in hot ashes"! I miss my mama.

      I’m from South Georgia, where we would never be so disrespectful as to call her “Barb!” And yes, it’s “Miss” Barb even though she is married (or even if granddaddy passed away). An older, beloved but respected man who is not related to you is •Mr. John,” but never “John!”
      I’ve only heard “Ms” in NC and that was reserved for the surname, as in “Ms. Smith.”
      But even in NC I’ve never heard just plain “Barb!” I’m shocked.

      Uriah Romero one I’m from Chicago two I actually have a few in my house but I hate marshmallows and I usually hate southern food like sweet tea (cause unsweetened is so much better) and I don’t say ya’ll
      So I’m pretty much the opposite of a southerner
