Among the Hillbillies part 2

Things that do not exist in Mom's neighborhood:
1) Sidewalks!!

Things that exist in abundance in Mom's neighborhood:
1)Crickets
2)Fireflies (didn't recognize these at first.. thought they were some kind of freaky air pollution.)

Afternoon was spent on a long unsuccessful quest for pickled pork. You can't buy it here! Not at the Food Lion, not at the corner grocery, not at any of the millions of Krogers that dot the landscape. I even tried the International Supermarket where, amazingly, you can get boiled crawfish but, again, no pickled meat. How am I supposed to make my red beans?
