Sheesh. That's just stupid.

No, that's just CBC.  Or were you posting about something else?

This is the thread where we are saying something to ourselves.

 Are you saying that^ to Queen Victoria, or to yourself?  :zoinks:

Can I just add that I think it's a brilliant movie?

 You certainly can!  I've never seen it but I will take your word for it.  :thumbup:

This is one of the times when I "feel" my age because I saw Taxi Driver when it first came out.

 I was only 10 when it came out, much too young to see it!  :angel:

Are you sure it's only been four days since the surgery and not 4 weeks?  Now recite the Serenity Prayer 15 times.

Teach yourself, trial and error, to make a nice corn bun/bread, luut. You love the ones you buy nowadays and think, after finding the right recipe (and maybe add some extra ingredients you like/trying to bake one a couple of times), this is actually a good idea. 

Kneading the dough is a good exercise for your arm muscles also. :zoinks:

The corn bread we have in the US is a quick bread, much like a cake and doesn't need kneading.

I agree with Queen Victoria.

Here's a recipe to make cornbread similar to my grandmother's:

1 cup self-rising cornmeal
1/2 cup self-rising flour
3/4 cup buttermilk
2 eggs
2 tablespoons vegetable shortening

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.

Melt shortening in well-seasoned cast iron skillet in oven.

Combine all ingredients and mix well, then pour melted shortening into mixture and mix again.  Pour batter into the hot cast iron skillet.  Bake for approximately 20 to 25 minutes.  Remove from oven and let cool.

To serve, cut into wedges and serve with butter.

Yield: 6 to 8 servings
