My husband got me hooked on his sweet southern style cornbread many years ago, when I told him I didn't like cornbread. He proceeded to make me the best cornbread I had ever tasted, and I've been requesting his cornbread ever since.

For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son,that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal live. John 3:16 (NIV)

A staple at our Holiday table, with chili, meatloaf, or just by itself...we even make it with breakfast!
