damn good johnnycakes

Mom said something to Peanut about having blue johnnycakes (cornbread) –
Mom:  And they’re damn good, too.  But you’re sitting in them.
Peanut: Well, that sounds like a mess.
Mom: Yeah, and what about the baby on the end of the couch? Someone should cover that baby up.
Leah enters the room and Peanut tells her that Mom’s been talking about cornbread.
Mom: It’s damn good.
Leah: You know who makes good cornbread is Joel. He makes it in a cast iron skillet.
Peanut:  That’s the Southern way.
Mom: Yeah. He made the first batch and I made the second. It’s damn good.
