I’m just raising a glass of bourbon to the memory of Tony Joe White and listening to “Rainy Night in Georgia”.

A great musical talent and, by all accounts, a great bloke.

RIP

TJW the man who sang about places like ‘down in Louisiana where the alligators grow so mean!’

A unique style indeed!

That's POLK Salad ... polk is basically an edible weed that the poor folks would gather up, cook carefully (it is poisonous) and use like spinach which it tastes similar to (so I am told).

Ian,  talking southern cuisine, do you know what grits are?  I heard people talking about it but have no idea what it is.  Something like porridge or gruel?
