Looking for OP corn variety with "old timey" flavor for roasting
Comments (10)I've tried a few heirloom sweet corns. The only variety I can remember by name that I rejected (for flavor) was Country Gentleman. (It seemed pretty much like the pure "glue" taste to me at the time.) The two I might grow again are Golden Bantam and Ashworth. Ashworth made a wimpy plant, but it might have had slightly sweeter corn than Golden Bantam and it was extra early. I've gotten to where I prefer hominy from the local heirloom dent corn I grow, and I don't care as much for sweet corn any more, but after all these years I really ought to try some of the field corn I grow in the milk stage....See MoreWe can now edit posts:)

Comments (109)I'm 36 and my DH is 10 years older than me. This is our second house and first kitchen remodel. My father was a carpenter and I've always loved the thought of DIY. He's in his eighties now and would be game for a remodel, but we really try to keep him off ladders and away from power tools. Doesn't seem to stop him though because last year we came over and found him in the backyard tied to a tree 30 feet up with a chainsaw in his hand. My mother is no help in this department because she was videoing him sawing the tree down instead of telling him he needed to get down! hehe. Due to personal circumstances, we are hiring out most of the work although we did do the electrical ourselves but that's only bc the one we hired mucked things up so bad that my DH couldn't stand it and rewired EVERYTHING. This is not our forever house but we've learned the hard way that thing don't always come out as planned so I have no idea how long we'll stay in this house. Due to that, I'm trying (emphasis on the *trying*) to not be overly obsessive compulsive about every decision - so now I'm just super indecisive instead.:-) Resale is a huge factor in many of our decisions, so I'm stuck with the same layout and couldn't move plumbing or appliances, but I did get a new island that is about 40% bigger than my old one and so much more usable! I sure would hope to one day have my ultimate dream kitchen, but this one won't be it. This is gonna be the 'compromise' kitchen as it's still better than the one I had before! When that day comes, I sure hope all of ya'll and this site will still be around because where else am I going to find all this wonderful advice and folks who are as OCD as I am?...See MoreWhat are we reading? August 2020 edition
Comments (188)I just finished The Vanishing Half by Brit Bennett, I enjoyed it. I finished All The Way To The Tigers by Mary Morris today, it was a great glimpse into India and a woman's quest to see tigers in their natural habitat after a debilitating accident. A friend recommended Scythe by Neal Shusterman that was ok, I am not really into science fiction. I also listened twice to the audible book Thicker Than Water by Tyler Schultz the whistleblower of the Theranos scandal. It was fabulous. I am now reading Pico Iyer's, The Lady and The Monk. Has anyone here read Pico Iyer? He is an amazing writer, poetic in a realistic relatable way. I am enjoying seeing Kyoto through his descriptions. This has been been my August reading. I also started The Island of The Sea of Women by Lisa See. I put it down halfway through, not for me. Lisa See is one of my favorite authors, but I did not enjoy this book....See Moremama goose_gw zn6OH
