I love corn . . . .and butter

The best thing about August in Iowa is all the wonderful sweet corn.  More than we can possibly eat, but we'll try.  Daddy likes to barbeque it in its husks- just throws it on the grill.  Then I use Boppy's Butter Brieght to spread the butter on the corn.  I don't mind "cleaning" the spatula afterwards:


I am so excited!  Uncle Kurt arrives in 2 days and Cousin Laura will be here next week!  Here's a photo of me with my cousins, playing at Alisal:



And daddy hanging me upside doiwn.  Maybe he's trying to get the butter out of me!

I also love corn with butter - I think it is a family trait or maybe its because we live in states that have yummy sweet corn in our backyards and we can buy it at the Farmers Market.
