At Least Somewhat Cornbread

Here is a recipe I have concocted; a combination of many cornbread recipes I have so intricately researched.

Mix:

1/4 c. flour

1/4 c. cornmeal

dash baking powder

dash salt

And in a separate bowl (as pictured), mix:

1 egg (lightly beaten)

3/4 c. buttermilk (3/4 c. milk + dash lemon juice)

1 tbsp olive oil

But I added some scallions, the last cherry tomato, and some mushrooms before I stuffed them in the oven:

These are meant to bake for approximately 20 minutes at 400 degrees, but I believe mine tasted a bit too much like egg to agree with this sentiment.

The hearty taste went well with some fermented vegetables that dearest Ma'am has been working on!

And though they do not look scrumptious, they were pleasant, which is lucky; half went into tomorrow's lunch!

Reunion

A series of pictures from our college reunion, which involved friends, spicy (sort of) food, alcohol, and rock band.

Inluding:

1. Rum & Merlot Sangria (Boodle)

2. Cinnamon & cocoa coookies -- more of an appetizer than a dessert... (Boodle)

3. Spicy rice with so many wonderful vegetables -- and disgusting fake meat, for Bethers' sake (Ry)

4. Delicious from-scratch cornbread (Bethers)

Everything was satisfying, and the gathering was quite nice, even with the snow-laden traffic and buggers on the highway.

Can we do it again?
