rooster or no rooster?

a friend once told me that southern women need at least one rooster in their kitchen. well, the other night, beth and i were talking about it and she had never heard this. she tweeted it to see if any of her friends had ever heard of it. many said that they had. i called my mom to see if she knew where i was coming up with this. she hadn't heard of it.

so anyway....have any of you heard of having a rooster in your kitchen? i pulled pictures off of the internet and am not sure of which sites they were on....

oh - i did find this online several times... "rule the roost, but pamper the rooster".... but i haven't been able to find the reasoning behind this...

{just a real rooster....is this the inspiration for us southern women?}

{one version of walter anderson's rooster. my friend shana has a big one of these in her kitchen and i love it!}

{i think this would be so cute in a house that is rustic!}

{this little guy would be cute on a counter or a buffet}

{this is a set of pieces from peter's pottery. the rooster (just in case the pic is hard to see) is in the upper left. THIS is the rooster i have in my kitchen!}

i also have a small watercolor rooster that i LOVE, but i don't have a picture of it on my computer! maybe that's my cue to get it framed, hang it, and take a picture =)
