Milk and Butter Corn
 
This is the season for corn and my family and I love sweet corn on the cob. 
We like it grilled, boiled, steamed, and roasted but until recently I had never tried it ‘Southern style’, which is boiled in a pot of water with milk, butter, and sugar added. 
I read about it online and had to give it a try. Guess what? It was pretty darn good!
The corn was tender and sweet and the girl’s even had seconds!

Corn was on sale 6 for $1 this week {score!}. 
So naturally I stocked up and decided to make a big pot of 
Milk and Butter Boiled Corn on the Cob.
First, peel all the corn, removing the husks and silks.
Fill a large pot about halfway with water.
Add 1 cup milk and 1/4 cup sugar.
Add 1 stick of butter.
Add corn, about 6-8.
Bring to a rapid boil.
Reduce heat to low.
Simmer corn for 8-10 minutes or until tender.
 
Remove from the pot and serve.

🍜 We had so much fun celebrating Lunar New Year last weekend with dinner at @pho_85_noodle_house_llc in Bentonville, AR! The Banh Mi sandwich and Beef and Seafood Pho soups were filled with fresh ingredients and flavor packed. As you can see their portions were huge so it's a great place to share! We also tried an appetizer sampler, Thai Tea, Coconut Boba Smoothie (my girls' favorite) and macarons for dessert. Everything was made to order and delicious. The staff was kind and helpful. If you live near by, check them out and #eatlocall ! ❤️ @visitbentonville #Bentonville  #pho85noodlehouse #arkansasfoodie #whatsfordinner #arkansasblogger #supportlocal #bentonvillearkansas #lunarnewyear #chinesenewyear

🌟I had to step out of my comfort zone today and attend my first networking event since moving to Arkansas. I already  struggle with meeting new people and being social since I work from home but now I live in a new city and know no one. Thank goodness I found @winnwa . The networking lunch today at @bonefishgrill was exciting, encouraging, and of course, fun! Over 80 local business women attended and everyone had a chance to introduce themselves and share what they do. I look forward to more  #womeninnetworking events in the future. Hoping to make some new friends too!
➡️ Swipe to see what I left with..... Bang Bang Shrimp, of course!🦐 #winnwa #smallbusinessowner #workfromhome #bloggerlife #arkansasblogger #nwarkansas #bonefishgrill #networking
