Hi, Fran! This part of Florida (I’m in Hillsborough County) doesn’t have a Southern personality, at all. That’s the reason no one around has heard of syrup and biscuits.

So glad you found us, Fran! I hope you visit us often.

Just found your blog…what a cute name. I’m thinkin’ you must be a relative because I thought my family was the only bunch of weirdos to eat (and love) biscuits and syrup. I grew up in the Florida Panhandle and now live in St. Petersburg. Nobody here has ever heard of biscuits and syrup. What a shame. I found you off of Pinterest. Love your blog.

Love your story!! Grandchildren really do fulfill our lives don’t they. My purse recently was stolen and my granddaughter came to my daughter crying and wanted to give Nana her allowance for the next four weeks to help her out!!

When I was a kid we had alphabet soup and I liked it much better than the noodle soup because I didn’t get any noodle waggle on my chin. Love your soup.
