Here’s a possible #14

I am a 30+ year transplant to Texas and I live in the hot, sweaty portion of South Texas - Corpus Christi.

My mom who comes to visit from Washington State during her winter months (usually in October - when it’s still hot) and always arrives with this on her lips:

“Baby Girl! It’s hotter than two hoes sitting in church on a Sunday morning!”

The other saying she arrives with:

“Baby Girl! I never saw such big houses as they have in here in Texas. Why are they all so BIG?”

Replying to this latter question, I simply reply: “Mom. Everything is bigger in Texas.”
