You know what a buckeye really is, and have a recipe for candy ones.
"Toward the lake" means north and "toward the river" means south.

Your school classes were canceled because of heat!
You've had to switch from "heat" to "A/C" in the same day.
You know what should be knee-high by the Fourth of July. ( corn for those not from Ohio )
You end your sentences with an unnecessary preposition: Example: "Where's my coat at?"
You install security lights on your house and garage and leave both
unlocked.
You think of the major four food groups as beef, pork, beer, and Jell-O salad with marshmallows.
You carry jumper cables in your car.

You design your kid's Halloween costume to fit over a snowsuit.
Driving is better in the winter because the potholes are filled with
snow.
You think sexy lingerie is tube socks and a flannel nightgown.
The local paper covers national and international headlines one page, but requires 6 pages for sports.

Not really, I never knew much about corn. We planted lots of squash, tomatoes, onions, green beans, etc when I was a kid, but corn was a little too much for me.

There is a lot to be said for a flannel nightgown :growl:
Sorry I think that is about the only one that didn't apply to me... But I do have a pair of flannel pj pants with 20's all over them. :p

True enough---except I keep refering to those Amish folks as 'Pilgims'...how embarrasing is that?
