Colonial Cooking at Mount Vernon


This weekend Mount Vernon (home of George Washington) held a craft festival. Juried craftmen and women donned period garb and made their wares with skill and love. The cooking demonstration caught my eye (of course) as the mistress cooked on a little "oven" these lovely hoecakes. I got to sample them and I was reminded of Paula Deen's little beauties.... butter! They were absolutely delicious!

Enjoy the slide show!
