Answer 1

Journey Cake - Corn Bread -

Originally called a ‘Journey Cake’
Put two eggs in a pan
Add two cups of fresh buttermilk
That is maybe if you can

Or substitute the sour milk mix
With just a little vinegar
Be careful not to over sour
Maybe just a half a jigger

Now put two teaspoons of soda
And a half of cup of flour
Dump in two cups of corn meal
You’ll eat within an hour

Two teaspoons of baking powder
And a teaspoon of salt
Then toss in a teaspoon of sugar
Or hear about the fault

Now to tease them tasty taste buds
A quarter o’cup of shortenin
But much tastier yet is bacon grease
It’s a heart attack yer courtin!

First beat the eggs before you mix
Mix smooth and heat the skillet
Fill the pan about an inch and half
Be careful not to over fill it

Pour that mixture in a 12-inch pan
Be sure to grease the bottom
Figger about 25 minutes at 450
And now there you gottum!
