[st_row disabled_el=”no” ][st_column span=”span12″][st_text text_color=”#0f0f0f” ]If you’ve been following us on instagram this past winter, you’ve seen some of our posts about ‘what farmers do in the winter’. Glamourous things, like…
- repairing broken appliances
- tackling the mountain of clothes to be ironed
- filling up the woodshed for next winter …and so on…
We would be misleading you though, if we let you believe that nothing we did over the winter was fun!! We had a fabulous time with the whole family over March break, escaping the snow. Man, did that warm southern sunshine feel amazing!!!
At the risk of boring you with ALL of the details… (those can be the topic for a roadside chat later on this summer…), we DID want to share just ONE of the trips’ most memorable moments with you.[/st_text][/st_column][/st_row][st_row][st_column span=”span4″][st_image image_file=”https://millersbayfarm.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/04/IMG_6664.png” image_size_wrapper=”” image_size=”full” ][/st_image][st_text ]As we meandered around downtown Belize City with our brand new friend, Dan. (How that came about is also a story for later…) imagine our surprise and delight when we saw this! CORN!!! “Guess you can take the farmer out of the cornfield….but….”[/st_text][/st_column][st_column span=”span4″][st_image image_file=”https://millersbayfarm.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/04/IMG_6666-2.png” image_size_wrapper=”” image_size=”full” ][/st_image][st_text ]Well… we HAD to try some. The gentleman in the red ballcap had just made his way down the street with a fresh pot of ‘Street Corn’. To dress it, we could choose between ‘Regular’ which was sea salt and fresh lime or ‘Creative’. (The name still kills me!!) Creative Corn is the ‘interesting’ flavour combination of ketchup, mayo, and Cheez Whiz.[/st_text][/st_column][st_column span=”span4″][st_image image_file=”https://millersbayfarm.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/04/IMG_6670.png” image_size_wrapper=”” image_size=”full” ][/st_image][st_text ]Not feeling quite THAT adventurous, we went with the ‘Regular’! It tasted, as you might expect…. a little – ahem, ‘more mature’ could we say – than what we’re used to here in Ontario, but we didn’t care. It was an experience none of us will ever forget![/st_text][/st_column][/st_row]
