YOU MIGHT BE A FARM GIRL IF…
…you have a cup in your kitchen devoted entirely to bacon grease.
…you have ever moved furniture in a gooseneck trailer
…you know what an AGR is (and have dated one.)
…someone in your family was once maimed in a horrible pickle canning accident
…you’ve ever judged a man based on the shape of his hat
…as a child, you had twelve cats—only one of which you've ever actually touched
…you have ever parallel parked between two large bales of hay
…in college, people knew your dorm room as the place where they could always find duct tape
…your senior prom had to be rescheduled to avoid a conflict with the State FFA Convention
…you get giddy when the new Gurney’s Seed Catalog arrives
…you’ve ever worn Carharts to a football game
…you know what Carharts are
And the number one sign you might be a farm girl...
…most of the conversations you’ve ever had with your father ended with the phrase “BUT DON’T GET KICKED!”
Are you a farm girl? Please comment. I'd LOVE to hear YOUR stories!

Well, damn, I had no idea I was a farm girl. I just thought it was a southern thing, but I could say yes to every one of those excep the AGR (and I think I know that what is and could probably say yes to that, but I'd thought I'd check with you first)... and instead of a pickle canning accident, it was a crawfish boiling accident.
You mean there are people out there who don't keep duct tape in stock? What is wrong with them? I've even used it to wrap Christmas presents. (Red and white duct tape once. Worked like a charm.)
Not only have I worn Carharts to a football game, but they're also fabulous for snow skiing!
And hat shape is ALWAYS important, you can spot the ones to throw back from 50 yards.
How bout these....
...you know the stain remover/detergent combo that best gets manure out of Wranglers.
...you can get 25 head of heifers loaded in a trailor assisted by only one blue heeler.
God bless farm girls!
Okay, Desta, where are you getting your blue heelers, because ours were really more "stand in the gate" dogs.

How many do I need to get? I think I'm 4 of them. Hmmm. A Chinese farmgirl...I guess I could be a rice pattie girl, although I'd rather eat bacon and flapjacks any day over a bowl of rice and pickled pig's feet.
Oooh, Dana. That's gonna be tight, but I think we can let you in!

How about anyone who has ever attended smith chapel for their entire life? I think that one will work. Ally will be the only one to get that one. Or how about if you've ever been whipped with a pig stick?
Here's another one! If you're a real farm girl, you're smart enough to try to weasel your way into the middle of the feed truck. That way, you don't have to drive, nor do you have to get out to open the gate.
I keep bacon grease in a cup. Seed catalogs are known as "garden porn". It's a cruel late January joke.
That's a good one abbygail! Your aunt Janice liked the church comment.
Totally me!
What do you expect though
I own a horse
Love horses
Live on a ranch
Live in Texas
I think only 4 people in my town own a car (No one in my family is one of them)
