B IS FOR BOURBON
/bərb’n/
If sweet tea is the wine of the South, then Bourbon is Mother’s Milk.
(Or so you’d think, listenin’ to them talk.)
“I know folks all have a tizzy about it, but I like a little bourbon of an evening. It helps me sleep. I don’t much care what they say about it.” – Lillian Gordy Carter
Oh Bourbon! Makes me think of home…Louisville, KY–the bourbon capital of the world. We moved to Ohio six months ago, and my hubby laments every day that he can’t get his favorite here–Weller’s Reserve. 😢

Hi Shirley, I’m doing a theme of Southern lifestyle so I’m certain alcohol quotes will be involved at times 😊

Was that Miss Lillian who said that about bourbon? I liked her. I can just see her having her bedtime bourbon. 🙂

In the past I was never much of a bourbon drinker. In recent years I’ve began to have affinity for it. I think more like Miss Lillian of late.

I just love that quote from Miss Lillian – it’s so very Southern. I’m not a bourbon aficionado, but my husband enjoys a tot (or two). Thanks for stopping by!
