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.

🌳 ✨️NWA Must See : Listening Forest by Rafael Lozano-Hemmer. 
My family and I had the pleasure of experiencing this nighttime interactive exhibit at @crystalbridgesmuseum last week. It was unlike anything we have ever done before and we spent two fun filled hours exploring the lighted forest and all the lights, music, sculptures, and sounds within. Hands down one of the best experiences we have had so far in Arkansas!

It's #WhatchaReadingWednesday (a day late, whoops!). I was so excited to find this Choose Your Own Adventure book at @samsclub and it's a #StrangerThings story! I loved these books growing up and I am super excited they are making a comeback. This easy read is perfect for throwing in your bag and picking up anytime you have a break and want to read a chapter or two of a story. Super excited to read this one and you know I plan of reading all 25 endings! ✨️
