Today bought bread/ butter sweet corn from farm. 50 ears. Quick boil 5 min Ice bath Double wrap Saran and freezer bag. Place in freezer Enjoy all winter What do you with it after you take it out of the freezer? We purchased some today that we might have to boil/freeze/store for a bit. Bill asked the question, and I said..."I don't know?" Thanks! My grandmother used to par boil her fresh sweet corn from the garden, then let it cool. She sliced off the kernels and froze them in quart containers. Defrosted, heated up again, and served...I could swear it was fresh out of the garden. 🙂 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wouldn’t it be nice to have a balcony like this on a cruise? Beautiful and relaxing picture! 🙂 I am sure hoping it is indeed on a cruise for me..by end of November...my first (hopefully...maybe?) post Covid cruise. Until then...we are trying to pretend up here in Maine. 😉 First picture was off our suite at Bar Harbor Inn this past June for 25th anniversary. 🙂 Rest are rental homes from this summer. 17 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let me tell you, from a guy that is 65 and grew up in the states, the same thing happens to me! The older. I get, it doesn’t get any better. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We had about 8 inches of rain in just a couple of hours. Some areas I heard on news had over 10 inches. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lower Bergen county, not so much. Had to turn around three times and then luckily get on the parkway home to avoid getting stuck due to flooding. we are hoping to get out on time tomorrow from EWR to FLL - hopefully boarding the Edge on Saturday. I hope you have a wonderful cruise! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Especially when you'd want to convey the right feeling/sentiment. You should think that if I read fluently, I'd write fluently too.... Nope. [not to mention my accent...] I know the word, or the phrase, but it refuses to come out... So I try another one, "nearer"", a synonym, and by way of "elimination" ... bingo or Eureka 😁 I think your written English is excellent Dani. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Their cousins haven’t made it down to the Lake yet but when the saw this pic, they ran to get ready! Corrie "the driver" had a great day yesterday but I don’t think she realized that with her dad here now, she is not going to be driving on the way home. 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So I try another one, "nearer"", a synonym, and by way of "elimination" ... bingo or Eureka That describes what I went through after my stroke. Very frustrating; I was aphasic, but my mind was working! As my speech came back, I knew what I wanted to say, but there was a disconnect in my brain. I became very good at synonyms. Even now, I have trouble with numbers and spelling. Fortunately, when you’re reading out a series of numbers, the person you’re reading it to thinks that you’re being very kind and careful by enunciating slowly and clearly! 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
