A BIG, HONKIN' PIECE OF SWEET CORNBREAD

Yep, that's what I just ate and it was delicious! Does it even matter that I walked an extra half mile at the park this morning? Instead of my regular 3 miles, I walked 3.5 miles and was so proud of myself. Then home I came to fix an early supper due to Agustin's work schedule. He had to leave the house by 3p.m. I sabotaged myself when I baked that cornbread! Oh well! Tomorrow is another day!

Many of you asked about the homemade laundry detergent. I'm not thrilled with it yet, but I didn't quite follow the directions exactly and improvised. Let me do it exactly per the instructions and then I'll post about it, okay?

My son and brother are in West Virginia these days working for my cousin. He has two rustic rental cabins built so far but plans to gradually add to that number. John and Josh helped finish the second one and were happy that finally, yesterday the lumber was delivered to start on the third cabin. KUDOS to Keith who decorated them himself! Click here to see just how cute they are! Rita, be sure to scroll to the bottom of the home page to read about all the other AREA ATTRACTIONS! The Pocahontas Coal Mine Tour piqued my interest!

So, about that cornbread. Are you going to share your recipe or what? Tapping my dainty toe...

We're having black eyed peas tonight and your cornbread would go good with it.

Those cabins are adorable. Makes me want to go.

Hey, cornbread is really not so bad!! You've got some fiber and some protein from the different grains, egg, and milk!! Now, the Reese's peanut butter cups I over indulged in tonight, you could feel guilty if you did that. And you walked 3.5 miles?? That is amazing!!! I (sort of) cleaned my house and (watched) my daughter's ballet, does that count? =)

A big honkin' piece...huh?

Did it have butter on it that was slightly melted due to the cornbread being piping hot???

I'm drooling!!

I´ve never had cornbread. But it sounds good. Any bread is good to me... :) Maybe that´s why I look like I do! :)
