Minnesota Prairie Roots 
Yum.
Yes, and we haven’t even had any fresh sweetcorn yet. The crop is really late this year.
Us either. I am hoping this weekend. Chris really wanted some last weekend but I didn’t go out and get any. Today is the day—-I am feeling it! 🙂
Yes, I’m thinking the same, to accompany the pork loin I’m preparing for supper.
Yes, and I love this corn season! However, if we don’t get any more rain, our corn crops – both field corn and sweet corn – will be doomed.
Oh, no. Rain this weekend maybe?
We’ve been teased about rain for over a week now. I’ll believe it when my rain gauge proves it!
Alright then. Here’s hoping you get that much needed rain and soon.
Had my first taste last week…it was yummy.
It always is.
Okay. Now I need to fly to the US so I can discover what candy corn is. Enjoy the season! xx
That sounds like as good a reason as any to fly to the U.S. Kandy corn is simply a variety of sweetcorn, aka corn-on-the-cob.
yum! Had some a week ago from Olivia MN “Corn Capital of the World”
Kandy corn – it is delish!
As I type, my husband is husking sweetcorn, picked up from a roadside stand in Gaylord, on our way home from Morris.
