How very neat!! I never would have thunk of that. I've been so
overprotected apparently. lol

okra. ugh!!!!!!!!!

My folks always heavily buttered a heel of bread to use as a corn

it. Mmmmmmmmmmm

Or, de-silk them, pull the shucks back up, wet them, and grill THOSE
(the shucks then serve as a GREAT "handle") ... and then serve with
fresh avocado/lime butter (and paintbrushes, for the ease of painting

on
the "butter")

We
started eating corn this way when we decided to live a low-fat
lifestyle. Not doing too well on the lowfat lifestyle but will love
corn cooked this way.

They are basically like a black-eyed pea, but they're purple! I don't
really like them but my hubby does.

Last weekend my hubby and I went to his parents out in East Texas.
Besides having BBQ Brisket (that she bought for 39cents a pound!) we had
homegrown corn, tomatoes, green beans, and purple hulls. For dessert she
made a angel food cake and we had peaches from a nearby orchard. I have
never eaten so many peaches. YUMMY!

We bought a 9.4 pound brisket from her (paid a whopping 3dollars and
something), and came home with homegrown tomatoes, zucchini, and green
beans. Wish I could have come home with some of those peaches!

Everytime we go down there we come home with stuff for our freezer. This
time we could barely fit it all.

Best reason for summer has to be ICE CREAM!!

kaila, who was smart enough to marry the ice cream man!

So, do we get a recipe for the avocado/lime butter? Pretty please?


Hi,
This does sound delicious & I hope you share the recipe . I just had a
root canal yesterday, so everything is sounding good. I barely got to eat
anything yesterday. gulp

Oh yeah! When I got home from work tonight, I went straight to the freezer for
a big bowl of Haagen Dazs mint chip. That was good enough for dinner!

..to eat or bathe in?

Whoa....never thought of taking a bath in ice cream!! Since we've been having
112+ degree temperatures, I might have to get it a try!

You might want to skip the mint chocolate chip. You would have a bugger of a
time getting those little bits to come off in this heat.
