Oh, this is beautiful. Fantastic. I am woefully behind in my reading, but geonncannon said this was great and he was right.
I love the first line, Idgie being so Idgie. I laughed. You do dialect better than I would ever dare. And I could feel the heat and the muddy, tepid water.
And the last few paragraphs. More erotic than sweet, and yet still so very Ruth. I'm so very pleased you wrote them that way, and so viscerally.
