It's so hot where I'm at. Downright scorching.
I hear you,I haven't had miracle whip since being a kid..but it worked back then it is a different taste from hellman's..have you heard of cooler corn? You pour boiling water over ears of corn in your standard or small cooler,close it,let it sit for ten or fifteen minutes,and done to perfection and will keep it hot for cookouts..
Can pack up and send when they come in if you'd like.
Would be my pleasure.Some just sitting out there with a box that you put your money in. No one around. Honor.
Bushels and jams and pies.
Are Jersey tomatoes especially amazing? I could send you some Mississippi/Tennessee tomatoes and you could send me some Jersey tomatoes, nottie. We could compare our tomatoes!!
Look at that - I've never seen it done that way, but that's just perfect. I don't really like it grilled - so many folks here think that's the thing to do, but that cooler trick will be my best party trick this summer. Don't tell too many people! Also, I see that it's peaches & cream - the best corn ever.I hear you,I haven't had miracle whip since being a kid..but it worked back then it is a different taste from hellman's..have you heard of cooler corn?

Spidey knows.
There is something special about South Jersey tomatoes. And corn
I lived in Pennsylvania. All of our fathers would drive to Jersey to buy plants every year.
You would think the angels were singing when they brought them home, planted them, and tended to them.
I'll swap tomatoes.

Speaking of plants, my grandmother has transformed the front and backyards of her house into a garden.
I saw a recipe that advocated putting in a glass of regular milk and a stick of butter into the boiling water and comments were it was excellent tasting.. Of course Salt and Pepper to taste.
Jersey tomatoes are acid free in taste. Just smoothness and taste only Jersey sand can provide.
It's a date then! Two weeks until tomatoes here!
I'm willing to try that and let you know!
It's hard to describe, isn't it? You got it thou, Spidey.
Sometimes, it's just somebody's front lawn, with the honor box.
That's amazing - the honor box! I've never seen such around here.
Corn so good here, it's only a three minute boil. So sweet. could eat raw.
lil tiny salt.
Spideyman yikes, I remember my mom shucking jersey corn, and we were happy to take the 'lil pets' outside to play with. Catterpillars in there sometimes. Put them on trees.
I would freak now.

Yer killin me. I'm dying now for corn and tomatoes. From Jersey.
Remember the big green tomato worms? Was considered bad luck to kill them, so off they went to the tall grass away from the plants.
yee, gods, no, but heard about them.
I remember eating corn on the cob with cut away sections. Guess that's where the cat's were. Thanks, mom.

I am bummed today because the corn is not ready, and Holly wants to compare tomatoes, and I tried on a bathing suit that I ordered online.
Need more tomatoes.
