Letter "C" -- Friday's Weekend Roundup 11 / Reflections and-or Street/Candid Captures -- Corny, but there is a lot of Corn here today

Roasting Corn Ears ready for Cooking (boil until kernals are soft) 

.Starts with "C":  Corn starts with "C".  I can't eat corn anymore, doctor's order.  Nor can I eat nuts and seeds.  I cheat a little, could be Fake News, but I believe that Pecans are vegetables.  



A Favorite:  These are Corndogs that I cooked.  Corndogs, sliced dill pickles, and Diet Cokes with corn chips on the table.

Corn Dogs are one of my favorite foods.  I had my first one in California, on a pier near San Franscico in 1964.  

 




Tom's Choice, "Candy":  Candy Corn Day, October 31, is always on my birthday.  So every year I buy a big bag of the Candy Corn for my namesake.  



A Lagniappe No. 1 A Corn Plant.  There are no ears or blossoms, ornamental only.  They are very easy to grow though.  Even forgiving if not watered a time or two.

Reflections and/or Street Photos/Candid Captures: After the Corn is harvested and sold or in the crib the corn farmers become Snowbirds.

...Jim, you CORN is as high as an elephant's eye.
...I enjoy corn and nuts, but have never had a CORN Dog. I know that you like them.
...CANDY CORN isn't for me.
...I like your CORN plant, it looks happy.
 
Hi Jim, I thought about posting corn pics but then I forgot! I've been eating an ear of corn almost every day. I love fresh veggies in the summer, especially tomato and corn! I was never a fan of corn dogs, but my kids are. Maybe I should try one again, it's been years since I had one. Have a nice weekend!

Don't think we have corn dogs in the UK JIm but I certainly have never had one and I would NOT be eating that full of sugar candy. That is a lovely reflection shot. I hope you have a lovelyu week ahead and thanks for your comments on my posts
 
Jim, you are making me hungry for corn on the cob. It's hard to find here in Oklahoma, but when I lived in Illinois it was everywhere. May have to break down and buy some at the grocery store. I much prefer from a farmer's market, but they never have it. Have a great rest of your weekend!
 
Great pics! I really like the corn field one.
