One more thing on the subject of teacakes. I took one batch out of the oven, as they were done. My grandmother yells, loudly, "put them back, put them back." What ever for? Well, I had temporarily forgotten that my grandmother does not like her food to be any color but a deep brown-- everything but rice. I remember once my sister baked a cake, it was a nice yellow cake-- my grandmother stuck that cake back in the stove saying "It needed to brown." So tonight, I asked my grandmother why she didn't like mulatto cookies. Ha.My grandmother wants it dark to burnt,no mulatto.Hahaha. Such idiosyncracies.
