My mom would say "We are shi**ting in tall cotton" (when something good happened) When my granny would write a letter or when we would call and ask how she was - she always said "Fat and Sassy" - I still use that one.

My Mom had a saying about poor people which she was most of her life. Her saying went like this. "Soap is cheap and patches are honorable"
|
Some of the ones I heard often growing up are: Money doesn't grow on trees, strike the iron while it's hot, a stitch in time saves nine, Nobody gets to pick out their face.

My kids always thought money grew on trees...until I showed them the dead tree in the backyard!

I remember ne from when I lived in Texas....Bless her heart. You cold make anything sound nice if you added "Bless her heart" at the end. For example...She is the homeliest person I have ever met...Bless her heart.

My mother said something similar...."Clean your plate because there are starving children in China!" I never understood it, but it worked. |

My mothers favorite saying when she asked you to do something and you said you were too tired.
"You'll have to do more when you are less able" |
