Maude Findlay:
The thing that we have to get straight right off the bat is that in this household we are all on a first name basis. I mean, even my daughter calls me Maude. Now what's your first name?

Florida Evans:
Florida.

Maude Findlay:
Florida. Oh, you were named after the state.

Florida Evans:
No, I was named after my aunt.

Maude Findlay:
Oh, and she was named after the state?

Florida Evans:
No, she was named after her mother.

Maude Findlay:
Oh, her mother...

Florida Evans:
Was named after an orange. [laughter] You see, they was picking them down there and she went into labor right in the orange grove; had the baby ten minutes later. They was either gonna call her Florida or Sunkist. Now you know the whole story.

Maude Findlay:
Fascinating. Fascinating. I mean, the things that come out of your culture are so, so rich, so juicy.

Florida Evans:
Mmm, mmm. I got one about an apple I'll tell you sometime.
