Summer supper

Sometimes a simple summer supper can be just plain good.

We picked up some corn on the cob today, since Giant Foods had it on sale, twelve ears for $1.99. Great buy. So, I cleaned half of them so we could have corn for dinner.

After roasting some big sweet potatoes in a slow oven (to encourage caramelization of the natural sugars), I put a big, inch-thick pork steak in the broiler til it just got to "medium well." Then, while I let it sit to settle the juices, I popped the corn under the broiler, turning occasionally until they were hot and had a few little broiled brown patches here and there.

Such was dinner. We're stuffed, but content.
