It's not about the fish; it's not about the pollution; it's not about the climate change. It's about us and our greed and our need for growth and our inability to imagine a world that is different from the selfish world we live in today.
Sometimes you win by losing.
That said, there are certainly still cooks out there who make fantastic historical cornbreads, though the old recipes have often been changed to include modern techniques and ingredients.
My mission in life is to try and get to a point where my insides world is not affected by the outside world.
I was...labelled as an advocate because...I measured something.
The apparent physical stability of reefs belies an underlying natural turmoil of growth, death and destruction of calcareous organisms. Much like a modern city, reefs are constantly being rebuilt and torn down at the same time. Corals are the bricks, broken pieces of plant and animal skeletons the sand, and algal crusts and chemical cements the mortar. Reef growth is determined by the production, accumulation, and cementation of all this calcareous stuff into solid limestone.
Many of America's historical cornbreads were staple breads for people who didn't have many other options.
But since you're asking me, I'll tell you my opinion: all cornbread is authentic, as long as it's good, hot, and made with love and fresh ingredients.
I have spent far too many years trying to make everybody like me. It's not possible. People can say or think what they want.
I tested a lot of old cornbread recipes and most of them were bland or tough.
Most cornmeal producers dont tell you when their cornmeal was milled, which makes it difficult to know how long the product has been sitting in the store before you bought it.
If you have a busy natural foods store in your community, give their bulk cornmeal a try: high turnover means the product will most likely be fresh. And if the cornmeal is organic, all the better.
Vanity Fair' caught me at a very exciting time in my life filled with night clubs, international fashion shows, celebrities and lots of cash to go around. Sometimes things just fall into place. 'Vanity Fair' was one of those things.
When in doubt, throw it out.
