She always asks me to mix the cornbread up. (I think she’s tryna include me, so sweet of her )
I go in the kitchen and she hands me a new bag of Martha White cornmeal the other ingredients are right close. She hands me 3 eggs. I say “so you want the big skillet?” she nods.
I carefully open the bag of corn meal in order to keep the dust down. I look in. Fine.
I put the eggs in the bowl and spurtle them up. Pour a little buttermilk and mix(this is how Granny taught me).
Got a small bowl with flour, sugar a little salt, baking soda and powder.
Go to scoop out the corn meal. I noticed it was very speckled. I swooped the scoop in and all hell breaks loose. Something(s) flying up in my face.
Oh crap.
Gotta trash that. We always have more but it made me nervous. So I inspected another bag very carefully.
Why did they not fly up when I opened the bag? Why is there critters in my corn meal at all?
Reminds me of the time I was at a friend’s house, and I was about to pour myself a bowl of cereal, and a cockroach fell out of the box, ran around the bowl, tumbled out of the bowl, and skittered away.
