What Do You Call It?

Welcome to Tuesday 4 which was started by our friend Toni Taddeo and kept up in memory of her. 
Thank you Annie for hosting!


Different sections of the USA have different words and customs they use. Let's talk about them.
1. In New Jersey you put your groceries in a paper bag or plastic bag. In Athens, Ohio where I went to university, you put them in a paper sack. Is it bag , sack or something else where you live?
We used to have sacks, now we have bags.

2. Though no one seems to wear them anymore, NJ says Stockings.
Athens, Ohio used to call them "hose" and in Britain they are tights.
What about where you live?
Hose

3.Soda, Pop, Coke?
Hero, sub, grinder, hoagie?
Coke and a sub.

4. Shopping cart or trolley. buggy?
What do you call it?
Buggy

Join in the fun at Tuesday 4.

Word for today: Words

When I opened the blinds this morning a beautiful ray of sunshine filled the room.  The morning sun always brightens my day. (even though it's so hot😎)

Hope everyone has a great day.

Until Next Time

  9. Lovely header Mary. I also like the green background and your sweet and short answers to Tuesday 4. Did you know that when we click on your profile photo when you live a message that it doesn't take us to your blog page here? Maybe you like it that way but if you didn't know I thought I'd let you know. I always click on your profile pic when you leave a comment for others so I can get to your page so that is how I know it doesn't work that way. Anyway, have a wonderful week ahead.
