    I still cannot believe that you two built that cabin by yourselves with only $1,500! 😮It’s adorable and practical, both! ❤😊

    My Alabama father taught me to put cornbread (with NO sugar) into a glass with milk. Still delicious!

    I hope John Townsend gets to see this. The picture inserts of him were really cute. I also like nutmeg. I bet he would like that nutmeg grater. I hope someone comments about why the sugar came in those hard cones and not something easier to deal with that could stack better.

    This came across my feed and I've been watching these ever since. Great to see how people lived and cooked back then. Makes me appreciate everything I have today, while seeing how life made families closer. Keep it up!

    This vlog was hilarious! Between Ron's delirium from nutmeg and Justin's laughter which is so contagious, I can't remember laughing so much! Love it! Thank you both for being so real!

    My Granny would put her cornbread in a bowl and pour buttermilk on it to eat.

    Hi guys, love the channel and when it veers into science topics of the day back then! Sugar was almost certainly manufactured and shipped this way for centuries up until the modern era for a few reasons, primarily because raw sugar contains molasses which when poured into a conical mold and left to cool and dry just naturally forms a rock hard mass like this, but also because even if they granulated or powdered it after this step, it wouldn't matter. Air conditioning wouldn't become widely available until the 20th century, and because sucrose is pretty hygroscopic, it would simply absorb humidity from the air and quickly become a clumpy, soggy mess during transport and storage in earlier centuries. The hard cones are much easier to ship. Incidentally, Francis Bacon (of scientific method philosophy fame) discovered triboluminescence, or the emission of flashes of light when crystals break, one night in 1620 using his sugar nips on one of these "loaves" of sugar stating: "It is well known that all sugar, whether candied or plain, if it be hard, will sparkle when broken or scraped in the dark".

    Hey you guys I have to share with you, that back in 1985 when I was dating my then boyfriend who is now my husband for 37 years, I had made him a 3 layer chocolate cake with chocolate frosting, he really surprised me when he put his cake in a bowl and he poured milk over the top of his cake. I had never seen that before. I am used to it now but back then I was very suprised, so having Ron talk about puting his cornbread into his mug and pouring milk over it. It reminded me of my hubby😊😊

    Buttermilk. My father & Grandfather both put their cornbread in a cup with buttermilk poured over it. That was their late night snack.

    You two are a hoot! And I suspect the cones were to prevent rodents from gnawing on them during shipping and in home storage. It is why the Egyptians made grain into beer---reduced loss to rats.

    My Granny from the Ozarks and her people always made “soakies”. Cornbread, molasses or sorghum, and milk.

    In Germany you can buy these sugar cones and I used them before for Feuerzangenbowle. Not sure what it was used for back then in the old day.

    Ron, add blackeyed peas or kidney beans to that bread and milk with salt and pepper. Yum!

    Brown sugar is still sold in cones in Mexico and probably avalable in Mexacan food markets. Your cast iron pan is referred to in my book of antique cooking emplements as a gem pan. I'm from Georgia and enjoyed the sweet drawing ! Also cornbread does not need sugar ! ha ha ! Great in sweet milk or buttermilk !!

    Sound yummy with coffee,or hot tea! Appropriate to since the recent passing of the Queen! We will never see another. Isn't that something to think on? You both be happy and well. ☺️.
