Cornbread Deficiency

Mothers Day is a time when you tell your mother how much she means to you. If she is no longer on earth it's time to reflect on the things you loved about her. Like a lot Moms mine could cook better than any Mother I ever met and that's one of the things I remember about her the most. Warm buttery cornbread and pinto beans was my favorite mothers dish. Such a simple meal yet today's kids are forced to eat canned and microwaved meals so most don't know the joys of warm buttery cornbread and a bowl of pinto beans.
Today's world has a cornbread deficiency which has caused too many over weight kids. If more kids had a glass of cornbread and sweet milk before bed the world would be a much happier place and they sure would not need two Jimmy Dean sausage biscuits and a cola to wash it down with when they got up every morning.
Plain and simple today's Mothers are not providing enough cornbread and pinto beans for their darling children. I understand today's Moms have a very busy lifestyle but the importance of 3 grams of cornbread a day can't be understated. The side effects of a cornbread deficiency includes an inability to play outdoor with other children. The only outdoor exercise today's kids get is when they happen to be standing outside while they are using their fingers while texting another kid.
Maybe the world needs a non profit organization to deliver care packages of warm buttery cornbread and pinto beans to every kid in America on a regular basis. That may be the only way the cornbread deficiency can ever be eradicated. I call on all you Mothers to start being a little creative and throw away all those boxes of Jiffy cornbread mix and cans of Ranch Style beans. Surly one of your friends on your Facebook page has a recipe for warm buttery cornbread and pinto beans. Happy Mothers Day.
