While I was making dinner (coq au vin, sauteed corn, and egg noodles), I knocked a glass of water onto the kitchen floor, where it shattered. Laurie helped clean up, and Iris was very interested and concerned. After the crisis was over, I showed Iris the pieces of broken glass in the garbage.
> **Me:** Iris, don’t ever touch broken glass. It’s very sharp and dangerous.
> **Iris:** Just like a shark.
What do you use for corn this time of year?
Frozen. It’s not bad if you don’t cook it any longer than it takes to heat it up, but no one would mistake it for fresh, either. I put in some cayenne and onions.
