Corn off the Cob with Lemon
Normally, I make corn with butter, lime juice and cayenne, which is my favorite way. Someone seems to have used up all the limes making various cocktails! So because I had a bowl of lemons, I created a new version - Corn off the Cob with Lemon. The sweetness of the corn is perfect with the tartness of the lemon.

Cheesy Spicy Zucchini and Corn Pie
I drove from Elkhart Indiana to Ann Arbor Michigan and took the back roads through Amish farm country and corn fields. I realized how much I love it and yet I would be bored out of my mind if I still lived here. All that corn reminded me of this Cheesy Spicy Zucchini and Corn Pie that I made a few weeks ago.
