Default Recipe: Corn Pone (Another "heirloom" recipe)

I never would have called this "corn pone"; it's cornbread. Written in
Grandma McQuown's traditional style.

Corn Pone

2 c. buttermilk
2 eggs
butter size of walnut
1/2 tsp. salt
1 tsp. soda
1/2 c sugar [see?! She was from Pennsylvania! She put sugar in cornbread!
And you chide me for sometimes adding 2 Tbs. Sheesh!]
2 c. cornmeal
1 c. wheat flour [Huh, she also added flour. Keep in mind I live in the
southern U.S. but I'm not "from" there]

Bake, 350, till done. (Signed, Lena.)
