Corn

Hi again!! I've been on holiday for some time, but haven't done much blogging.. >.< Mostly because there isn't much to blog about... and no pictures worth taking... though it DID flood a couple of weeks ago.... which... i have one picture of...


Anyway, it's one of those lazy days... and i was wondering what to have for lunch... when suddenly i had an urge to gobble down lots of Corn... of all things... and that's exactly what i did... ^^

Being in KL for long stretches of time, one of the things i miss is corn... not actually sweet corn, but rather the fat, stunted cousin of the sweet corn... Hehe... Jagung pulut...
and so, i drove down to Foh Sang and got RM4 worth of that stuff... a total of 7 ears... ^^


Well... like any other corn, i need to start off by cleaning these.... notice how short and fat they are?? I doubt they actually get much bigger than this.... and that tuft of 'hair' that sticks out is just cute... haha....

The difference is.... this corn is best prepared boiled... not steamed, like sweet corn... probably because the kernels are actually quite tough and don't pop like that of regular sweet corn... but somehow i prefer these....

hehehhe.... FOOD!!! Am i gonna eat all that by myself?? Well, since it's lunch, that's the idea!! ^^

While waiting... in other news..

the canine displayed below is one of the finalists in the running for the title of World's Stupidest Dog... =.="... this refers to the white one with black spots...
Finally!! ^^


All this talk of corn and eating corn reminds me of a line... can any of you recognize it...? ^^

Mort: [voice-over] "I know I can do it," Todd Downey said, helping himself to another ear of corn from the steaming bowl. "I'm sure that in time, every bit of her will be gone and her death will be a mystery... even to me."
