The kids and I took an early morning trip to Walmart, to try and beat the crowds (and b4 Ash needed a morning nap). As we entered, the first thing the kids saw was CORN ON THE COB. They have been asking SOO much lately for it, and I have had to keep telling them, "we should be able to get some soon". Little did we know, their wishes would be coming true this very morning! So tonight for dinner we had our first Corn of the Year! And it did not disappoint!!
In addition we had shells and octupi (thanks Debbie for the great idea). This is actually our 2nd time having it. It was good Ame suggested it, cuz I didn't know
what we were going to have with our corn. At about 4:30, after doing everything from cleaning windows, to weeding, to changing out dressers w/summer clothes (it finally felt safe to do it),
I didn't have a whole lot of other ideas. And on the nights when Quinn teaches class,
which right now is 3 nights a week, I don't feel much like fixing any kind of grande meal.
The kids were excited and everyone was happily filled!
Don't they look like they are loving their cobs!
We look forward to MANY more nights of enjoying this yummy addition to our meals.

I LOVE corn on the cobb! That looks like a fun dinner- I have heard that called a "white trash sea food dinner" HA HA
well now I am reallllllly missing home--that Utah corn is the best. Side note-they sell corn =cob on the street venders here and I'm sure it is "cattle corn" and about 20 yrs. old. Very appealing! Love your shells and octupi.
i am glad you have made the octupi, the kids love them!
Those are the cutest hot dogs I have ever seen! What a fun mommy!
