[QUOTE="Steely, post: 479598, member: 3301"] Wow - I have to tell you Malika I had NO idea "sweets" were candy. Here we call anything sweet - well - sweet :) So perhaps therein lies the confusions! Sweets here are anything from chocolate bars, to cake, pie, milkshakes, cokes, and of course candy. My best friend from childhood moved to France when she was a young adult. We were both from the good ol South - Texas. "Fixin' to", "ya'll", "I reckon" were normal phrases. So now when she visits from time to time, some of the things she says make me bust out laughing, but she is dead serious. Like calling her underwear knickers. Hugs - girl. So glad that your son's progress report went better than expected that is huge!!!! [/QUOTE]
