Real Cornbread

Now well, I’m going to fetch my woman, people
Tri-cities here I come.
Oh, well, I’m going to fetch my woman, people
Tri-cities here I come
‘Cause she was raised up on that cornbread
And I know she’s gonna give me some.
“Mississippi Kid” – Lynyrd Skynyrd

When I think of Cornbread, I think of Martha White

Martha White
Get this kind:   Martha White Self-Rising Corn Meal Mix White (not yellow) Enriched, with Hot Rize.  Use a cast iron skillet or corn stick pan.  Follow the instructions on the bag for corn bread from heaven.   And please, please, don’t add any sugar.

You know, Flatt and Scruggs can’t be wrong

Almost time to “fall back” to standard time

Set those clocks back 11/4

DST ending

I don’t know how this always sneaks up on me, but Daylight Savings Time ends Sunday, November 4, 2012 at 2:00AM.    Don’t forget to set your clocks back, and change your smoke detector batteries, whether they need it or not.   Enjoy the early darkness in the evenings.

Standard time vs. Solar time?  If you want to read up on the theory of DST, and it’s history check this Wikipedia article.
