DIXIE VS. YANKEE
Are you what you speak? According to this test I am 40% (barely) Yankee. Probably about right. Thanks to Brandon at GWUL for the link.

I am 48% Yankee. Also thought I would be more. Where do we come up with other (Southern) dialect from? It makes more sense that you are 'slipping' given your current geographic location for the past few years - but I haven't lived anywhere close to South since I was 3! Interesting quiz. (Do you know where "Y'uns" or "Y'inns" hails from?)

I came up 40% Yankee also, because the scoring is flawed. Most answers actually registered as upper Midwest, which is true and not Yankee.
One question is in fact incorrect. I use both frosting and icing, being as I am the husband of a professionally trained cake decorator and thus aware that the words identify two different substances.
