Texas Facts.....
The Texas Accent
Now Y'all KNOW thar aint no such thang! But seriously, because of
Texas size, because of the constant influx of immigrants, and because
it has been influenced by BOTH the South and the West, accents in
Texas range from Sweet Southern drawls to Midwestern twangs, and many
people in Texas, especially urban dwellers, have no particular accent
at all. Probably the MOST commonly considered accent is the drawl of
Former TEXAS President, Lyndon B. Johnson. "Mah Fella Amurikins" The
"g" drops off the end of words, and the language is peppered with
words like "Y'all" and "Rrckon."
Texas Caviar
Black Eyed Peas. First christened as such by Helen Corbitt in her
heyday at Neiman Marcus in the fifties. It is also a Texas tradition
to have ham and black eyed peas for your New Years Day Dinner.
