Thank you Ennyhow for taking the time to express your views. However, you are mistaken in this case. When my husband was diagnosed with celiac disease, I was taken to task to modify, adapt or change my existing recipes. Such is the case of the gluten free cornbread recipe, which is from my own files. Before your note, I had never heard of the website you mentioned or the editor Suzanne Martinson. I then tried to find the recipe online and could not. Given that cornbread recipes are common, I'm not surprised that there would be something similar out there, but I assure you I did not plagiarize.

I dislike, more than words can express, plagiarism, and outright theft of another's authorship is even more reprehensible. The cornbread muffin recipe offered here by deepthinkin is the same recipe for cornbread that appears on the post-gazette dot com's "In the Kitchen" series edited by a certain Suzanne Martinson. The In-the-Kitchen cornbread muffin recipe dates from 2000, this one from 2007. The only thing that can save deepthinkin from my contempt is if it should turn out that she is the person who submitted the In-the-Kitchen cornbread recipe to Suzanne Martinson, without receiving credit for it. In which case I heap my contempt upon Suzanne Martinson!
