Cornbread with Hot Peppers
Small pickled tabasco peppers that I use in my chili. Buttermilk, bacon grease, and a very hot cast iron skillet. My grandmother's cornbread recipe. Goes good with the spicy bean soup I made again today.
Granny’s CornbreadFor this recipe you’ll need an 8-inch cast iron skillet and some bacon grease. I keep a little jar of it in the fridge just for making cornbread. Oil will do in a pinch but it won’t have as much flavor.Preheat oven to 450 degrees. The trick is to stick the cast iron pan in the oven for a few minutes to let it get hot and then add about a tablespoon of bacon grease and get that hot so when you pour the batter in you get a sizzle. That is what makes a nice crust.Dry ingredients:1 cup yellow corn meal1/2 cup flour1 teaspoon baking powder (heaping)1 teaspoon salt1/4 teaspoon baking sodaWet ingredients:2 cups buttermilk (approx.)1 eggMix the dry ingredients together and mix the egg and buttermilk together and then combine. You don’t want to stir it too much, just make sure everything is mixed together well; the batter should be fairly thin, almost like a pancake batter.Pour into blazing hot cast iron skillet and bake at 450 for 23-25 minutes until cooked through and browned on top.

Street Hawk
1985 ABC. Ernie Anderson narration. Tangerine Dream music. Robert Beltran is in the first episode. Watching the pilot now. 13 episodes.
This is Jesse Mach, an ex-motorcycle cop, injured in the line of duty. Now a police troubleshooter, he’s been recruited for a top secret government mission to ride Street Hawk — an all-terrain attack motorcycle designed to fight urban crime, capable of incredible speeds up to three hundred miles an hour, and immense firepower. Only one man, federal agent Norman Tuttle, knows Jesse Mach’s true identity. The man...the machine...Street Hawk.
It was exactly a year ago that I used $100 in gift cards to buy a cheap laptop with nice HD screen to use just for streaming. Last June I spent a couple of weeks trying to find as many old TV shows as I could and I found a lot. Now, a year later, I am searching again for some shows I couldn't find to see what might be available. Street Hawk was one of them. Found some at Dailymotion.
