I added the stat counter widget, and when I went to the design section to try to get in on the bottom of the list, I wiped out several of my other widgets by mistake...also changed the former layout and could not bring it back the way it was. Blogger has several options to change "layout"...so that's where I am now!

That's the kind of meal I love! I'm visiting Kitchen Gypsies for the Rajma recipe. :) I've been considering Weight Watchers too- it's been successful for so many people I know.

I had to laugh at your comment about Bill enjoying mussels for Valentine's Day...no way! LOL, he picked meatloaf...not quite as romantic of a dish.

Also, even more surprised that it didn't call for butter, or shortening. The buttermilk makes it moist, not too crumbly, and certainly not hard, and dry. I will want to stay with this recipe, and include chopped jalapeno, maybe even a little grated cheddar cheese. Trust me on this one...less fat...less sugar, and very easy to make:DDD<br><br>p.s. the funny thing about me mentioning I'm bookmarking a recipe, which I actually do, and when I say I'm going to make it...unless I have all the ingredients, I tend to forget to make it most of the time.

This corn bread looks so good. I have been trying to find a good cornbread recipe that is right for me. How does it hold up? Does it crumble easy? That is my issue...it seems it is usually too hard or too crumbly and falls apart. I usually try to find recipes that use less fat and sugar anyway, just because. <br><br>I have made several recipes from other blogs, and I usually don't say I am going to make it or bookmark it unless I really am going to make it.
