It's all what you're used to, Catharine.  I don't like cornbread without
sugar.  Love it with pinto bean soup.  With navy bean soup, an onion
samwich for dippin' when no one's looking.  That's two slices of margarined
bread with a slice of WallaWalla Sweet in the middle.  It's fat-fat, but
ah, well....Margaret
