Grandmother's Buttermilk Cornbread

This is BETHANY WEATHERSBY's from AllRecipes.com grandmother's recipe. I must say it is the best cornbread I've ever made and consume. It is sweet and moist, fast and easy to make. In the time it takes to preheat my oven I had prepared the recipe and ready to bake. Tastes so much better than the box kind. I had to put the recipe here because I keep all my favorite recipes on recipezaar.com.
