What’s Up Wednesday
Freezing Corn
I remember the first time Ben joined my family for Thanksgiving dinner, and he declined the corn. I thought it was weird, because….who doesn’t like corn? Being my nosy self I asked him why he didn’t like it and he told me he doesn’t like canned corn. I thought he was just being picky, and Read More
