Boil Corn before Husking

Boil Corn before Husking
Remove the outer husks and strip back the inner, so that the silk may be removed; this should be very carefully done and the husks replaced. Put in boiling water and boil for twenty minutes and serve hot, first removing the husks. The object of the husks on is that corn, cooked in this way, is much sweeter than when the husks are removed.
Ida D. Bennett

A Little Woman
“It was a cheerful, hopeful letter, full of … fatherly love …’I know… that they will be loving children to you, will do their duty faithfully, fight their bosom enemies bravely, and conquer themselves so beautifully that when I come back to them I may be fonder and prouder than ever of my little women.’” Little Women by Louisa May Alcott
I am thirteen years old living in a Christian Homeschooling family with my Mother, my father, my sister Hanna (9) and my brother Spencer (10).
We are currently going through the adoption process, hoping to adopt an infant from somewhere in the United States, praying and trusting God that he has the right child/children for our family.Other Great Blogs
