Well Shut My Mouth

Southerner's really to have a gift for turning a phrase. I am impressed with how long a southern will take to reply to "How are you?" Here are some I've heard with my own ears

"I couldn't be any better if I were twins."

''If I felt any better, it would be against the law"

and my all time favorite:

"I couldn't be any better if I were a peach hangin on a tree in July."

Last week I was watching a southern cooking show, where the hostess exclaimed,

"It tastes so good, it's gonna make your tongue slap your brains out."
