M.S. Buttermilk Cornbread

Is everyone ready for Thanksgiving? 

Me? 

I'm not ready at all.  I just made my grocery shopping list and menu so I guess I should probably get on that huh? 

This stay at home mom business has really made me lazy.  I'm pretty sure that by dinner time on Thursday I'll have figured out a way to make it all come together but as of this exact moment, not a lot of progress has been made. 

I do feel like I got a head start with this cornbread though.  I'm so glad I tried this recipe by Martha Stewart because I am totally going to make cornbread sausage stuffing with the leftovers.  This recipe is definitely my favorite corn bread recipe so far. I like moist cornbread with a nice crumb and just a little sweetness.  This recipe nailed all that!

I cut up the leftover cornbread and am in the process of drying it out for the stuffing I'll make later.  I didn't really grow up eating that much cornbread but I've been making it a lot more often in my adult years and really enjoy it.  This recipe is a must try!
