[b]26% Dixie. You are a dandy Yankee Doodle.[/b]

Wow. [i]Nice[/i].

I guess my generic American accent and "army brat" roots are showing. :lol:

34% Dixie. You are definitely a Yankee.

There was no question about hotdish, so I refuse to speculate... <_<

Wow, y'all - 45% Dixie, "Barely in Yankeedom"

I s'pose all those years of livin' in the Deep South have made their mark on me! :) But I'm glad, I actually like the South... though I always told the Sisters I was a "Yankee through and through"!

God-willin' and the Creek don't rise, I'll be taking another move below the Mason Dixon line, when my husband gets his official job offer (hopefully very soon!) Maybe I'm meant to be a Southern belle after all?!? :blink:

20% Dixie. Wow! You are a Duke of Yankeedom!

I'm surprised I'm even 20% Dixie. My roots (rhymes with "boots") go no further south than Northern Indiana.

What DID surprise me is that most of my answers said Great Lakes, or even more specifically Chicago.

I like to think I have no accent at all. But, I guess my years in the Midwest are showing.

Does this mean I have to read your posts with a Southern drawl now?

Is this God's way of telling me I should go to..um..Nashville?

I still don't have any explanation for my results.

54% Dixie. Barely in Dixie

The remainder mainly show a heavy NE influence which is so sad. I lived in Reno, NV until I was seven then finally hightailed it to TX. Must be a boatload of yankees in my family negatively influencing my speech patterns...

49% Dixie with a bit of Yankee. Since my mom was a Southern Belle, and my Dad was a New Yorker, I guess that is just about right.
