We've been having sweet corn for about a week now. As expected, the first few batches were good but not great, but within only a few days, they went from a B rating to A+. We have a corn stand from a local farm that's just a short walk from our house, so we eat it every day. I even changed my schedule around so I can eat it at lunchtime at home. I can't do this every day--for example, for the next two weeks I'll have visitors at work, so will be back to a 10-5 schedule (I try to work 75% time), and then eat the corn at dinner time. And when the Fall semester starts, we'll have lunchtime meetings most days so I'll go back to 10-5 again. But my summer schedule has been great for productivity. I get a lot of concentrated work done in the mornings and then do my administrative work and meeting with students and other colleagues in the afternoon.
Here's a typical lunch out on the deck. This is what we live for. We dream of this in winter.
