Cornbread must be love food.
Here is a true story.
I was 18, making good money, and happily single. Lived with my family, way out in the country, not a house in sight.
One lovely friday evening I'm home alone, playing Command and Conquer, when i hear a knock at the door. Hmm, never heard a car come up the drive….. answer the door, and there with the biggest smile she can muster, is the girl that lives a mile up the road, holding a platter with a big HEART SHAPED CORNBREAD! “Hi Makinchips, i brought you a gift. And walked over to give it to you.”
I was speachless! Not sure why i did it but i reached out, took the cornbread, and said “thanks”.
She then asks me “can i come in and visit?”
my mind was racing, and the only thing that came out of my mouth was “sorry i have to go to town and i was just leaving. Thanks and Bye.”
I headed to town, wondering if i did the right thing, wondering if the cornbread was good. Hoping i wouldnt regret my decision, i pressed on towards town….
…i never regretted my decision…
Glad i didnt fall for the girl with heart shaped cornbread, cause my family tried tasting that stuff she brought over and they said it was disgusting.
She eventually found a husband, i see her in town from time to time with all her dirty kids and miserable looking husband. And when i see them i think “i wonder if they actually enjoy her cornbread…”
Now i have a wonderful wife and daughters that make delicious cornbread, and bake it in a round grizwold skillet.
