ok, I am the one with the cornbread problem (Mobile, AL to Weatherford, TX). I have a brand new elec oven (the builder installed it, I would have never done that); Last week, my old recipe with Martha White cornmeal and Martha White flour did not work here, so this week, I used different cornmeal and flour, but used the same recipe. It still didn't do right.

Last week:
I used 1 cp milk (not water); 2 eggs, 1/3 cp sugar, 1/4 melted Crisco shortening, 1.5 cps MW cornmeal, 1 cup MW flour; preheated oven, baked at 450 deg., 18 minutes.

This week, I used the same recipe (however, added 2 tsp baking powder) with different cornmeal and flour, still didn't come out right! I am out of Martha White cornmeal and flour and can't find it here (yikes).

What do I need to do to adjust my recipe (hopefully, I can find MW somewhere) to make the cornbread rise like it used to?

I am making cupcakes gor my daughters kindergarden class for tomorrow. The recipe says that they are best if served the same day. Is it okay to make the batter the night before and keep it refrigerated overnight. Does it make a difference? This way I don't have to wake up so early! Thanks for any help.

I add them in when the rice is done and I think it's delicious.

Its just that the lcd indicator on the lid lasts 4 weeks. in a household of 1 person, perhaps a liter a day would be used, ie 30 liters a month/replacement filter. In a household of 5 people perhaps 5 liters a day would be processed, ie 150 liters a month/replacement.
ZClearly if the filter is just as adequate to filter 30 liters a month as it is 150 liters a month then either the single person is being badly ripped off or the family of five risk drinking crappy water.

I've moved from lower AL to north TX. My cornbread recipe isn't working here. What can I add to make my cornbread rise (like cake) as it did in Alabama? I don't know if it's because I now have electric oven (how I miss my gas oven) or is this an altitude problem.

ground beef
pork chops
saurkraut
tomatoes (or tomato sauce)
green beans
chicken legs (but will eat chicken breast)
cottage cheese
macaroni and cheese
hot dogs
nuts (of any type)
leafy greens
mozzerella cheese
mushrooms
zucchini
squash
eggplant
eggs
and they dislike those easy boxed dinners and store bought bread.

any help is highly appreciated!

ok, sorry to sound stereotypical, but a lot of people I know that are white always say how some kinds of Mexican foods "tear them up inside" and stuff. How come I never experience any of this, nor many of my friends and family? (i'm Mexican)

I just picked grapes from my backyard and I am thinking about maybe making some wine. Does anyone know a "Wine for Dummies" way to make it? How many grapes do I need? Basically everything I need to know to make wine easily. Oh and they are purple grapes.
