    Someone had said something about Pecan cookies... speaking of Pecans.

    FI and I had a discussion about the difference between P-Cans and Pecans... Mostly because it drives me up the wall when people say "P-Can Pie" ...but then call the nuts "Pecans" ...same nuts... no need to call it anything different. FI tried to convince me that putting the Pecans in a pie makes it a "P-Can pie"

    Either way, How do you pronounce this type of nut?


    Edited for clarity.

    I hate when people say P-can... I know you can say it both ways, but P-can just sounds so country to me and it grates on my nerves.

    It was more of a "How do you pronounce this"  in my haste to post and answer my phone I forgot to re-read my post for clarity. 

    I originally from the north but grew up down south... so it drives me crazy to hear all the country talk.

    haha I see. Well I don't think there IS a proper pronunciation... Idk. I say Peh-cons. H says P-cans.
    I think that's a North US/South US split.

    FTL and Amanda, I am born and raised in the South, and it hurts my soul and my head to hear the pronunciation P-can. It's a pe-con. Argh.

    Anyway, my homework is finally done, the govenor election has been decided, and prop. 26 has been officially defeated... The rest of the elections I can catch up on in the morning. I'm calling it a night and going to call the FI. It'll be nice to actually have a real (as in, longer than 5 minute) conversation with him. Good night everyone!

    I generally say Pecahn... I have a pretty thick southern accent though.  I also used to pronounce the "L" in Salmon.. but only when I was talking about the color.  H makes fun of the way I say "Hi", "Eight", "Nine", "Etouffee", "Grits", really anything with a long "i"..The night we met he laughed for a good ten minutes listening to me tell him what my rate was (aviation administration).

    Sorry Ladies I backed out of the thread.  I got distracted by Gibbs on NCIS and then I fell asleep. 

    As for this southern girl I say Peh-canh.  I don't not say P-can as that makes my skin crawl. 

    FTL & Sami- I love candids.  There is one from our reception that looks like an older lady that I am friends with is about to flash the camera (New Orleans style).  HA

    Yeah, that's what my family says.
    Anyways, the state of MS voted , by a decent margin, No on 26, but the Personhood people want to make this a ballot initiative in Nevada, Florida, Oregon, and Ohio (and I think some others) so there's that.

    [QUOTE]I like pumpkin pie.  I'm made some pumpkin pecan cookies recently that were pretty fab also.. Why do you ask? FTL-I think I took like 48 million documents, but I only needed my marriage certificate,  and the paper from the SS office that said I had filed to change my name..

    I have this kick butt recipe for white chocolate pumpkin cookies. Would you like it?
