Today we are talking Jalapeño’s and Cornbread and Cheddar AND Honey.
The first time I ever made cornbread I think I was eleven or twelve. We were having a family party, I think for the 4th of July. My parents always had family parties. Out house in Rocky River on the West side of Cleveland, OH was on the lake and it was a fairly big house. This meant all the family parties were held at out house. Mother’s Day, Father’s day, Thanksgiving, Christmas, Birthdays, 4th of July. Ok, you get the point…..
We had a lot of parties when I was growing up.
Those parties were a TON of work for my parents. I mean I am not just talking a small family gathering. No our family is HUGE. Think drinks, appetizers, dinner and dessert for anywhere from thirty-five to fifty people. There are 26 Amsdell’s (soon to be 28), 24 Gerard’s and with our very close friends the Mooney’s, a handful more.
Yeah, is was a lot, and the parties were often.
