Boiled Butter Sweet Corn

Actually, I prefer just boiling the corn to eat but then I'm craving for this Boiled Butter Sweet Corn today. I remember when I was young my parents likes to buy me boiled corn when going to the cinema for a movie. Sometimes they brought boiled peanuts too. Those where the days, now that they are old  and have no strength to take me to the cinema no more. Perhaps I can take them to the cinema. This is the life of cycle. I hope and pray for them to have good health and live longer. Papi, Mami wait for me to come back next year, how nice if they can hear me now. I think they are in the middle of their sweet dreams now. Alright! back to the corn.
Corn is very healthy and delicious. The best thing is now every where at the store is having great deals. I'm getting these corns 4 for a dollar. Beware of heartburn when eating too much corns. It is difficult for digestion. Completely bite before swallow.
