Bounty and Beauty on April 19, 2010

Two hot homemade pizzas arrived first, one with meat topping and one with a vegetarian topping that included pesto and carmelized onion. Oh, the happiness of the early arrivals, who rightly treated the pizzas as a first course that must be consumed Right Now!

Many other wonderful foods arrived, making a beautiful full table, along with a fine full house.

Some -- but not all -- of the dishes:

Bean Stew
Savory Vegan Pintos
Mexican Cole Slaw (vegan)
Spicy Pork Tamale Pie: Corn, Cheese, Roasted Hot Banana Peppers, no gluten
Kentucky Black Skillet Hot Water Buttermilk Cornbread with Campsie Chives, Campsie Sage, and Parmesan; vegetarian, no gluten
Homemade Country Butter: Slightly Tangy, fresh (not pasteurized)
Spicy Eggplant Spreads
Homemade Bread
Asparagus
Chocolate Bundt Cake (named "Giant Chocolate Doughnut" by the children present)

Nine Years of Cornbread Suppers, Plus a few FAQs for new people

Every once in a while, especially in July and August but other times as well, something will change and Cornbread Supper will not be at 250 Campsie Place in Lexington, Kentucky at ...

Cornbread Supper now is resting

For all the Cornbreadians and would-be Cornbreadians -- it was a good run. A bit more than nine years. You came on Mondays. Conviviality ensued. You made community. Gratitude to all. It was a gift to us.
