It is amazing how far this blogging journey has taken me.  I look back and see how much I did not know both in terms of cooking and photography.  While I have reached some level of competence with each, learning actually means knowing how much more I have to learn.  That is a positive statement.  The fun is in the learning and then the creating.  I look at my post and also see that there was no story.  Just a recipe with a sentence defining the origin for the idea.  I remember this recipe and it was really good.  I need to make these again!

My mom loves corn bread so I thought I would try this recipe I saw and I am sorry but I do not have the original source.  It combines the corn fritter with pimento cheese spread made with Jarlsburg cheese.

    Everything you said is true about all of us who blog about food. Heck when I first started I just kept writing up recipes and they did not even have a photo. We learn daily and as the expression says, “you’ve come a long way baby.”

    Corn Fritters are a staple around my house in summer. We serve them with sour cream, although the hubby loves his with ketchup. Love the idea of topping them with pimento cheese! I will have to give this a try!

      Top them with ketchup? Is that a Southern thing? Learn something new everyday!

    Looks delicious and great idea, especially for entertaining. I think you just inspired me to make a pimento cheeseburger sometime in the near future 🙂

    Hey, I love pimento cheese! Jalsberg cheese, first produced by Anders Larsen Bakke during the 19th century, is made from mild cow’s milk cheese and is usually seen with large holes, also referred to as “eyes.” These appear once the cheese has been processed. It has a rich buttery texture, with a mild, sweet, and nutty flavor. It also melts easily, almost like mozzarella. Come to think of it, this might actually be a great alternative for mozzarella. What do you think?
