Corny

Last night I realized that we had lovely ears of corn in our refrigerator that would not be lovely much longer, so Kevin and I had a Corn-for-Dinner Party, which is the sort of party where you eat corn for dinner.

Now, we've been married over a year, and have been together for over 3 years. Several crunchy golden minutes into our Corn Party:

"Wait. What are you doing?"

"What?"

"To the corn. Why are you eating it that way?"

"This is how I eat corn."

"Nobody eats corn like that."

"I do."

"Well, you're wrong."

Exhibit A: my lovely ear of corn, typewriter-style

Exhibit B: Kevin's lovely ear of corn, pencil-sharpener-style

We are certain that this means something very significant for our relationship and future children. This is on the same scale as which way you load the toilet paper roll (so it dangles away from the wall) and how you say pecan ("puh-CAHN").

They do not cover this stuff in pre-marital counseling.
