Oh - that's just three of them. It isn't anywhere close to the set.

For years, we rescued them from Flea markets antique auctions and junk dealers. Then others found how cheap they were. At auctions they often sold during the last 30 minutes when everything desirable had been auctioned off and folks were leaving, as a box lot of five various cast iron pieces for $10.00 - but not anymore, since folks realized what was going on.

that is a buttered piece of cornbread



are those the same as Johnny cakes? Red Beans look killer too. I have the green version of your stone ware.

I would not have a problem calling them Johnny cakes, or hoe cakes. Both of those would work for me, as would skillet fried cornbread.

The stoneware is Shearwater Pottery from Ocean Springs, MS. If I ever hit the lottery I wil order a full set of everything I can get them to make. We have a cat plate that I'll photograph and post sometime. Incredible Potters there - Th eWalter Anderson Family. Google them or Sherwater Pottery if you like that stuff.

Sherwater is hard to buy because people call to find out when a firing is coming out and show up that morning to buy everything they can afford.

The 1920s era Sherwater pottery sells at auction in the Hundreds/thousands of dollars, depending on the potter and piece.

I wish I had taken a photo of crumbled cornbread and chopped onions in a cold glass of milk. If you've never tried this, you have my pity.


In VA I always got a bowl and crumbled it up (more broke up into bite size pieces) then take buttermilk and pour over..... Even today when I go home to visit Dad has a fresh pone ready and a bowl out....
