Before we get to Chad's nautical adventure, here is a brief photo essay on the joys of corn on the cob.
In order to learn how to truly enjoy corn on the cob, one must watch a two year old very closely. Grasping the salty, buttery cob in both hands, one must not be afraid to get a little dirty.
At this point, all that matters is the corn, not manners or decorum. One can take a hot soapy shower later. Just enjoy the sweet buttery goodness of garden ripened jubilee corn on the cob. The crunch and taste is more important than the bits all over your chin, or the pieces stuck between your teeth. That is what what dental floss was made for.
Do not realease the cob from your lips until your mouth is full and you have bitten off a few 'rows'.
When you think you have done that cob justice, do not be afraid to ask for another. It is a long time until next year's crop and by then mom will have made sure that I have better manners.
So ..... what are waiting for? Go get yourself some!

...for the record, Liam doesn't get butter and salt on his corn :)
He's ok with it plain and I'm ok with not cleaning up greasy hands!
I suppose it would be too much work to Photoshop each kernel of corn off of Liam's face! A great set Terry, made me laugh.
