Reese’s is bringing back its popular peanut butter lovers cups for a limited time – Southern Thing

Those memories are priceless, especially since the house I grew up in didn't have much of a "settin' porch" it was just a walkway to the front door, which we never, ever used to enter the house.

In the days before air conditioning, people used porches as a necessity to escape the stifling heat of the kitchen or upstairs bedrooms. Many homes even had "sleeping porches" because the air outside was cooler than the air inside. These days, people don't sit on porches as much as they once did, watching the busy world around them while waving a cardboard funeral-home fan beneath their chins and making philosophical commentary.

Although air conditioning and busy lives threaten their existence, I hope porches never go out of style. They are more than just gathering places; they are the lap of the household, warm and welcoming.

We still need porches and below I listed 11 reasons why.
