[janelle]

We also call the baby buggys strollers. Use to be buggys.

What do you call the place you put your groceries when you come home from the store before they are put away? I say on the sideboard. My hubby didn't know what I was talking about. He says counter top. He also says cabinet and I say cupboard. Then I remembered I was raised by older parents than he was. That is what we said in our home.

I say countertop and cupboards. I dont think i've heard the phrase "sideboard". Sounds like something you iron on or something.

[bonniejeanne]

Here in the Deep South (LA) we "make groceries" and place them in the "buggy"

I was born and raised in Louisiana and I have never ever heard anyone say that they "make groceries." And I call it a "shopping cart."

[galeane29]

I call it a buggy, my husband calls it a basket ( he is a yank)
We call all carbinated drinks coke and I have family and friends that say ' groceries' when they are referring to meals. Them are some goooood groceries :)

[ilovecats]

I live in Mass and never hear anyone call it tonic. LOL We call it soda.

Tonic: Chiefly Eastern New England. soda pop. (got that from dictionary.com)
I don't know anyone who calls it soda.:rofl: Anyone I know calls it either tonic or coke.
The other questions:counter,cabinets,I never say groceries or even grocery store.It is food shopping and food store.:rofl:

Sideboards and Servers
Sideboards and servers are typically traditional dining room furniture pieces meant for placing serving dished prior to serving at the dining room table. Many people use servers and sideboards as entry hall pieces to put pictures on or just for additional storage. Pick your new sideboard or server below!

http://www.everythingfurniture.com/sideboards.html

I don't know how the serving table became a sideboard in the kitchen in my family. ???

[cloudbreak]

it's funny i ALWAYS get a cart even if im only buying two things. i dont know i just like pushing the cart around i guess :)

[ilovecats]

That's funny how our areas are so different. I think we live only about an hour from you. LOL

I know!So weird.I did notice today that my kids do not say tonic.I guess that is going away and we will all call everything Coke(I wonder if Pepsi gets pissed at that?)

[ilovecats]

That is funny.What do you call the thing babies/small children are pushed in?

Is it only local that kids have the little saying:

Bob and Mary sitting in a tree
K-I-S-S-I-N-G
First comes love,then comes marriage
Then comes Bob with the baby carriage

Does anyone else know this little rhyme?It wouldn't work if you didn't use carriages.:rolling :rolling

So do you call a carriage a carriage?:rofl:

[Thamlet]

I always say I'll grab a "cart" or ask the kids to get one. If I just need one or two items then I'll use a "basket".

[dangerousfem]

put them in the buggy.. sometimes cart.. most of the time buggy

[LuvBigRip]

Glad to know my 26 yr. old grandgirl will caall it a cart. She just moved this past week to just north of Phoenix, a little town called Peoria.

Here in NC our groceries go in a cart. And I ride the racecart at Harris Teeter and it holds over a weeks work of vittles for me.

Peoria isn't that little. I used to live in Glendale, just next door.

Grew up in Cali, always been a cart for me.

[PinkAquila]

From the central valley of Ca.
I tell my kids to go get us a shopping cart.

My dad is from Louisiana he says buggy

[FreeIs4Me]

Same here - shopping cart or carriage. Baskets are the small plastic things you need to carry. I have only heard anyone use sack in reference to bed time - as in "Time to hit the sack".


That is funny.What do you call the thing babies/small children are pushed in?
I know some people call them strollers.Around here they are carriages.


I learned it as strollers are the things that toddlers can only sit in. Carriages are the ones that fully recline & you would an infant in. . :stork Then again, that was before all of these convertable strollers with the detachable car seat became big.



Tonic: Chiefly Eastern New England. soda pop. (got that from dictionary.com)
I don't know anyone who calls it soda.:rofl: Anyone I know calls it either tonic or coke.
The other questions:counter,cabinets,I never say groceries or even grocery store.It is food shopping and food store.:rofl:

In SE Mass, I have never (even when I used to waitress) heard anyone call it tonic. Just soda or brand name (Coke is Coke, Pepsi is Pepsi, etc)

Kitchen's have counters & cabinets that hang on the wall. A cupboard was a separate piece of "furniture" (like a microwave cart) used to store things in.

[dispatcher]

buggy

[ttistin]

I use both buggy and cart. Still got a little yankee left in me, but I am saying buggy more often.

[tareygirl]

So do you call a carriage a carriage?:rofl:

[PrincessArky]

[mamalamas]

[JustDoIt]

Up in the north, we call them buggies, and a Coke is a Coke. LOL

Guess I'll need to learn the slang if ever I decide to visit the south. :)

[dixiechicken]
