Wow wonderful post. I'll definitely have to try roasting corn that way though I'm so guilty of peeking inside the corn husk while it's still raw. I noticed word Hoosier in the title. Does that mean your from Indiana? :D

Thanks! I know it's hard to not look, but it's worth the wait, I promise. ;~D
Yup, born here and lived here most of my life (with a few side trips to Florida and Illinois).
Ok, I will definitely try to be patient the next time. ;)
Wow, that's great. I'm from New York but I had studied at IU in Bloomington for my undergraduate degree. I think the hardest thing to do is try to explain to people who are not from Indiana what exactly a Hoosier is. It's kind of has a similar difficulty in trying to explain what a Sooner is to someone who isn't from Oklahoma.
Yeah, Hoosier is a toughie to explain. I usually just tell folks it's a throwback to farm days when folks would ask 'Who's yer neighbor?' or somesuch question. Honestly, I don't think anyone really knows the definitive history, so one guess is as good as another. Lol!
I've been through Bloomington a couple times, but never had the chance to really visit. The IU campus I'm familiar with is in my hometown, Ft. Wayne. Big school... ;~D
Yes, it definitely is. I tried looking it up before but I just tell people it's just a term for someone from Indiana. Hehe
Bloomington at it's heart is a college town. There's a bit more to it than that but it's mainly driven by the campus at its center. I actually haven't been to Fort Wayne since it's more or less around 2 hours northeast of Indianapolis.
