(We still say icebox in the South.) Did you know that baking powder is just baking soda with cream of tartar added? Bad obviously made his own. I think he'd of used lard if there was any of that instead of Crisco--but Crisco is a staple of Southern cooks, more's the pity.Mary Loishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01515655542270431289noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6049626897935912366.post-58109608040305453852010-05-12T14:03:44.610-04:002010-05-12T14:03:44.610-04:00I love the picture of the donkey and the sheep.
