Especially since a couple have gone home to be with the Lord and it was they and their now deceased husbands who grew the fabulously delicious sweet corn. Corn on the cob with a bowl of pure melted butter with fresh garlic to ladel over it is the only way to eat it.!!! I still remember when my little sister always asked when we had corn served "Is this corn from the field?" Mom would say yes. My sister was meaning was this the corn that my uncles grew and we had put up or was it store bought frozen corn. Such a sweet memory 50 years later. Sure wish I could have been there helping you!!! Would have been fun !!!Auntie Pamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17022592762139177978noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4916485057164205644.post-90761139067186589672010-07-25T10:41:11.529-04:002010-07-25T10:41:11.529-04:00You know what I like...?

My family used to sell sweet corn to the folks in town. I have never seen a sweet corn silker -- didn't even know they existed.
