A Summer Luxury: Corn On The Cob

When I was growing up, summer always brought meal after meal of fresh corn on the cob. Its all we would have for dinner, we wouldn't even have any meat. This summer, we decided to let Camia have her first go at corn on the cob. She loves it. It's kind of no surprise, though since her dad (and mom) love corn as well. She ate it uncooked, right after it was picked. I suppose it is the most nutritious then.
While munching on her cob, the billy goat stole it from her unsuspecting fingers. She wasn't too impressed at first. Then she got another one and all was forgiven between her and the goat. For a little while. Then the goat chomped on her fingers. Then it wasn't so lovely anymore. But after a hug from mom and a kiss from Oma, her and the goat were once again on good terms with one another.
