Is a "mess" of squash - June 12th, 2005 at 08:22 PM
a southern term or a gardeners term. I started to post that I gathered a mess of squash for dinner (which is a whole nother term) this morning so I started wondering about the terminology. A mess means enough for a meal in the south. Is it the same everywhere? And what about dinner? A lot of people in the south have breakfast, dinner, and supper. Where I grew up we ate lunch and dinner.
Anyway today I gathered a mess of squash and some radishes.
