el maiz

I spent the majority of the day yesterday dealing with corn.

-We picked it.

-We shucked it.

-We grossed out completely over the disgusting, sick, vile, rotten worms in various ears of corn.

-Some of us complained and whined and cried and moaned.

-I cut off all the yucky spots.

-I blanched it.

-I put it in cold water.

-I cut all the corn off the cobs.

-I put the cut corn into freezer bags.

-I froze the corn.

-I wondered why I spent the good part of my day dealing with corn, when you can buy a big bag of corn at Costco for $3.00.

-I am still pondering the answer to this question.
