Cornbread and a good story

I found Homesick Texan via google's Food Blog Search. Can't say enought great things about that!

HT tells about her (her?) love of cast iron skillets, how to treat them, and then goes right into the greatest Cornbread recipe. I can't wait to try it! Our friend made chili and asked for cornbread to go with it. He's kind of finicky, so I'll probably make a separate, more conventional batch, but I'm definitely trying out this recipe tonight!

I made this last night, as indicated.
Well, it looked FANTASTIC. But it tasted "off," not sure what exactly I did wrong, but I'm going to try it again sometime. Good thing I made another type!
