Corn Cakes (Betty's recipe)

1 cup cornmeal
1 cup flour
1/2 tsp salt
1/4 - 1/3 cup melted butter or oil
2 eggs
milk to make a thin pancake consistency (I use abt 2 cups)

Heat an oiled griddle. Betty made them half dollar size--filled each plate with lots. Delicious with jam, yogurt, and/or syrup.

Betty would bring the electric griddle out on her balcony overlooking the bay and make dozens of them for us to eat when we visited San Diego.
