My mother died in 73 and I did not take cookin' lessins from her. What I do remember of her wondeful bread, corn and biscuits, was the buttermilk and "drippins" used in the corn bread and for neither did she do the precise measuring we do today. And the only vessel she ever used for cornbread was a very used cast iron skillet, in the oven. Biscuits formed from using a glass and of course there was always a pone, one large lump of dough not large enough for two biscuits. I still can't make a decent biscuit but I have about mastered the cornbread, so says my husband. ----- Original Message ----- From: <DMea986657@aol.com> To: <vafloyd@rootsweb.com> Sent: Wednesday, January 09, 2008 9:22 PM Subject: Re: [VAFLOYD] Not genealogy--more from Virginia > Hi all, > > I am hungry now!!
