Ärende: RE: southern cooking
============================
Hey Ruth!
-> 
-> Gotta get used to the EEEPC again; Steve has shut down my computer in
-> anticipation of pack out.  I'm making more typos but some of it's from a
-> band aid covering 4 stitiches.  My right index finger wandered a bit too
-> close to a bread knife last week--a clean cut but just deep enough to
-> need help in closing the flap.
-> 
YIPES!!! Be careful, those things can be
sharp!!

-> ->  hn> that's way sweeter than I like...to me it's
-> ->  hn> more like cake than cornbread!
-> 
-> -> A lot of places in the south are making it that way too.  But, when a
-> -> friend in HI wanted to make corn bread, I passed on the mantra of "no
-> -> sugar" to her.  Having had it only with sugar, she thought the home 
made
-> -> should be a bit sweeter once she tasted it.  So, I suspect now she puts
-> -> a bit of sugar into hers.
-> 
->  hn> I like mine "old style" no sugar and made in
->  hn> a cast iron skillit in the oven!
-> 
-> I don't generally use a cast iron skillet but have a time or two.
-> Usually it's my 9" square pan.
-> 
To be honest I usually do that as well (grin). But
I LIKE it best when it's done proper in a preheated
cast iron skillet!

-> ->  hn> Well, if you can get out from under it and
-> ->  hn> get something better now is a good time!
-> ->  hn> Car dealerships are BEGGING for customers!!
-> ->  hn> Make a tough deal and try for a "wednesday"
-> ->  hn> car!
-> 
-> -> We're trying.  Went down to the dealer to turn in the rental Friday
-> -> morning & pick up our car before heading up to WF. Less then 2 blocks
-> -> from the dealership, the light went on again so we headed right back to
-> -> Ford.  This time an engineer from the company saw it.  Time #6!  We 
got
-> -> a rental (Mazda 5) again--in the time it took to get back our car, head
-> -> out & back, get the paperwork, etc done, the Escape had been rented.
->  hn> ->
->  hn> Any solution in sight yet? Are you going to'
->  hn> keep the car anyway or trade it in?
-> 
-> To the point now we're talking turkey.  It's in again (time #7) and
-> we've reached a tipping point.
->
I'd say you've been more than patient!
 
-> ->  hn> enjoy the difference though! I have Family in
-> ->  hn> the Raliegh area as well.
-> 
-> -> Any chance you'll be visiting them in the next 3 years?
-> 
->  hn> Always a chance! My cousin who lives in that area
->  hn> has more airline miles than Michael..so catching her
->  hn> "at home" is iffy at best!
-> 
-> She will burn thru them at some point so keep trying to catch her at
-> home.  Meanwhile, we just have to do the lease paperwork & the house we
-> wanted will be ours.
-> 
-> 
She travels worldwide for her work and 
she's often gone for weeks at a time. 
But she's a real sweetie and if we 
get the chance to visit we'll try. My
parents live in SC so seeing them is
on the venue any time we come 
east.
chat with you soon!
