Cooking corn without shucking...

I thought this had to be a joke when I heard about it...so, I tried it. 

You basically stick the entire corn cob in the microwave for five minutes without shucking it - so put the entire thing in there. When it is finished, cut the stalk end off and then squeeze the cob out. The corn will come out completely clean - no shucks, no silks!!  Easy peasy!! I have noticed that you can only do 2 cobs at five minutes. If you are cooking more than 2 cobs, you need to increase the time in the microwave to like 7 minutes or so.

Cheesy Cheesy Cheese

Did I mention we made homemade cheese for dinner tonight. I did not tell the child what we were doing...the entire time he watched, he kept saying I had wasted the milk, you cannot reuse cooked milk, why was I wasting all the milk, why was the milk getting lumpy? Then there were the other questions: Are we making sour cream? Are we making cream cheese? Are we making dip? Why is the milk getting lumpy? 10 minutes from milk jug to plate!! We refrigerated the remainder of it for later. I mixed some basil with it and seasoned it with kosher salt and a bit of pepper. Yummy!
