Cornbread

My grandpa never drank milk.  For as long as mom can remember, he crumbled a piece of cornbread in a tall glass of milk every day at supper, and ate it with a spoon. When I was younger, my grandma had a wood burning stove that she used to bake the best biscuits and cornbread.  She would put a large chunk of lard in a cast iron skillet, and melt it in the old wood stove before she filled the skillet with the cornmeal mixture.
