This is Kalli. Kalli LOVES corn. And when I say she loves corn, I mean she really, really loves corn. But as long as it's on the cob. In her book it's the only way to eat it. I know that when I plan to make corn on the cob I need to make sure Kalli will have enough. The other night I gave her half a cob, just because I didn't think she was hungry enough for a whole one. Boy was I wrong. She ate her half in about 2 minutes (and she eats every single kernel off) and was ready for another one. So Joe gave her the rest of his cob which she proceeded to demolish. Again, she got done and was ready for another one. After some pleading on her part I gave her a whole cob and she ate the entire thing. I think both Joe's and my jaws dropped to the floor with how much corn she had eaten. When I'm preparing my corn and she sees me, she does the corn happy dance.
Oh and I found a new better way to make corn. Instead of salting the water you put 2 T sugar and 2 T vinegar into the water. Let the water come to a boil again. Drop in the corn, turn off the heat, put the lid on and let it sit in the covered pot for 10 minutes. So yummy!

I'd like to see that corn happy dance. I bet that was a fun diaper to change. We'll definitly try to have corn the next time you come. Thanks for the cooking hint.

Kalli's my girl! I'd eat corn on the cob all day long if someone fixed it for me!
