  NanaR, I remember a sister made it for a CO, and she thought they were going to have to carry him from the table. She said, and I quote, "I've never seen a little White man eat like that!"

  LOL @ Snowbird

  Yup, every CO that ever came through here gained lots of weight ;-)

  Except for the few who had the audacity to send a list of "acceptable foods" ahead of them (and these were not health-related restrictions, just high and mighty "this is what WE eat" lists). Those COs didn't gain much weight, they ended up having to feed themselves a lot *hah*

  Ah, the memories!

  As an Appalachian American whose family came from deep in Eastern Kentucky, I can say that I was raised up on beans and cornbread, but the cornmeal must be white, and the bread itself no thicker than 1 inch. Golden brown (almost burnt) on bottom, and slightly greasy.
  
  
  I believe this casserole you are talking about is mostly a midwest thing as my Ky family never fixed it, but my Illinois stepgrandma made it several times, and yes it is delicious.

  Hey Dave!! Another point about cornbread -- here in my part of Eastern Kentucky it is sacrilege to make it in anything but a well-seasoned iron pan. Yes, I am also an Appalachian American *hah*

  Ya'll have made me hungry for soup beans and cornbread -- but I'm all out of my Hudson's Cream cornmeal :-( That is my favorite brand ;-)

  I have saved Mrs. Jones recipe to try later -- I have a good friend in Greenup, KY, who makes this and calls it "corn pudding".

  Later!

  so yesterday i was watching the news and i saw something about secret santa.

  there is this movement of people who hand random strangers $100 bills at places like laundry mats and thrift stores.

  so i was "moved" and decided to give it a shot.

  Renee, what she does with the money really doesn't matter. What matters is that you did something good from your heart.

  Did you ever see the movie "Pay It Forward"?

  Kindness does make a difference.

  God bless you!

  Thanks Oompa!!

  Some of the links still work, and others don't. I emailed Cabasillas about the *.pdf he posted, and also downloaded the others.

  I got married in April 1974, and this May 1974 KM is perfectly representative of the kind of mindset that prevailed then.

  a couple of days ago i was coming home from church, in the afternoon, upon entering the building i saw one on of my neighbours sitting in the foyer, she also attends the same church as i do.

  i felt as if someone was behind me and i looked up to see and i was right there was a person and she was a jehovah's witness.

  she attended the same hall as i did but a different cong.
