I don’t bear in mind why I referred to as these Mexican Rooster Thighs.
Was it the inexperienced pepper? The spices? The candy corn?
I’m considering it was the candy corn.
Candy corn was a summer time staple the place I grew up, with farm vehicles on each nook promoting it for a lot of the summer time.
In winter we had our selection of frozen – kernels, cobs, sauced or not, in addition to canned.
After we moved right here candy corn, together with butternut squash, had been think about pig meals. Each had been grown to feed the pigs. Sometimes they had been additionally given to the chickens.
One may purchase canned candy corn right here – to placed on pizza which was the one manner I ever noticed it eaten.
Think about my happiness when the frozen meals retailer began carrying frozen candy corn.

Yearly I believe the spring is completely different / unusual.
I now suppose that inconsistency in flower blooming is regular and it’s my expectations which are improper.
My Japanese quince that usually bloom in January are blooming together with the hyacinth. They’re often filled with blossoms. This 12 months they’re pathetic and never value a photograph.
The hyacinth are fairly, although.
And the lavender determined to not die again this winter. So it’s a pleasant backdrop.
The weeds are doing very well this winter, additionally.
