As one of my teachers was fond of saying, "Give an inch and they take a mile". We need to get back to genealogy before things get out of hand. Thanks Faye

Y'all forgot the fried green tomatoes. I married a southern gentleman 39 years ago and have been born again southern. Even people from back home say I have the southern accent down pat. Not only that I cook all the south's goodies. From making Tea the right way to hoecakes. Soooo this foods not just for the southern cook. I never have posted before and want to know if anyone on the list is looking for family from the Abbeville/Edgefield/Old 96 area.

Just an added note to the fried cornbread......I use basically the same recipe for my fried cornbread but fry it in small individual patties rather than one large hoecake. It actually fries a little quicker. My husband taught me how to fry cornbread shortly after we married while we were both skinny as rails. You should see us now. LOL I believe the secret to the taste is the bacon drippings. Takes lots of them. Diane
