Always liked Mom's corn on the cobb. dripping with butter, but as a kid,
I couldn't wait until summer when we'd stay on an Amish farm in PA. It
was all organic. I remember we'd run into the cornfields, out of sight,
free and laughing and grab a few ears of sugar corn each, lay on the
ground and eat them raw! SO sweet and juicy, it was heaven! We were
worse pests than the crows in the corn.
