Fanny Farmer Corn Bread image

This came from my first, and most favorite cookbook. It makes a slightly sweet cornbread, which I adore. My hubby won't eat sweet cornbread, though, so I adapt it for him by leaving the sugar out. You can also make this recipe with buttermilk, by adding a 1/2 t. of baking soda along with the other ingredients. I'm posting it here so that I can access the recipe when I am away from home and don't have my book. (I also usually grind my own flour and cornmeal, and it still makes great bread!)
