Cornbread building

Merc, I like Jiffy Mix but it was banned here looong ago except when my wife goes out of town.

I'm not ready to ban it and start
from scratch yet. I'm enjoying the
success I'm having with the Jiffy Mix.

Ask Mrs. RTO to grant me a temp pardon.

I made corn bread for the second time.
It was better than the first time.

Ok.
Today was my best work to date.
I made corn bread loaded with blueberries
blackberries and strawberries.

I kept it in the oven a little longer than usual
because all the fruit kept the inside wet a little longer.

It came out very good.
Mrs RTO would give this an approving nod.

Merc, sounds like you were very close to making a cornbread cobbler. I believe that Kay and I both would have enjoyed your creation.

Ok.
I was just experimenting.
I didnt know this had a name.
I thank you for the heads up.
I know what to call it.
It came out good.

That was definitely a cobbler!
One of my favorites was: 1. apricot 2. Peach 3. berry 4. apple 5. rhubarb.
Except for #5, they were all made with dried fruit also.

Dang, I miss those days.

#5 is expensive here and I only see it at the market once a year. A $5 package doesn't have enough in it for anything. Have to buy 5 packages for even a small dessert.

I do have some #5 plants growing in the garden. This is my first attempt to grow them.

Neighbor has some rhubarb plants. Certified disease free.
If not cut, they will grow four feet high and be as big as your wrist.
They gave me some of the young and tender plants once.
I talked the wife into making me a batch of pie filling, without the pie.
She had to look up the recipe, did a good job.
It was a fairly large bowl full, and I ate until I WAS full!

Ok... Since nobody else will post the mathematical equation for this, it's pi r round/cornbread square.

Back to the show.

I had rhubarb pie for the first time at about 10 yrs old.
I had it my aunt's place in the Smoky Mtns in NC.
She asked me if I wanted some rhubarb pie.
For a kid from NYC. rhubard might as well been from Mars.
I never heard of it.
It was one of the best things I ever ate.

See ?
I knew there was a logical explanation
for all of this.

It was good stuff.
I'm going to use a lot more different fruits next time.
I have ready to go :

Blueberry
Blackberry
Strawberry
Banana
Pineapple

That's a good start
I will take pictures
Might look a little wild
I don't make pretty food.
