We dropped by after the Des Moines farmer's market on Saturday and there we were! On the shelf! Surrounded by other products! Like we really belonged! And I wanted to cry out, "Who's the loser now, grandma?!" but instead we just bought some amazing rhubarb soda and high-fived all the way home. We're SO EXCITED!!!

MEET DIANA!
|
|
Diana is an amazeballs cook/mad scientist who lives in one of the most gorgeous places on earth, Moon Mountain in Sonoma, where she and her husband own a winery! That's where they milk the wine cows! I had the pleasure of staying with them a few years back, and we ate like champions, people. Above is Diana's 2015 photo contest winning pic: "I make my whole wheat, freshly ground flour pizza dough with Cy Salt in the dough and then sprinkle it on top." All of Diana's photos were great. You can check them out on our Share slide show. She's been a 'Lick booster for years. Thanks, Diana! We salute ye!

IT'S CORNY-CORN-CORN TIME!
|
|
In Iowa, people go CRAZYTOWN for corn. Sure, it's a stereotype, but this sh*t is for real. Iowans have strong opinions about which farmer has better corn. They say stuff like, "Don't get it from the Kiwanis—that corn's crap." And everyone's got their favorite way to eat it. Last night, we used Peter Rabbit and it was slamming. All our flavors go great with corn. We did that on purpose!

You can sprinkle it on with butter, or you can soften some butter, stir in your favorite flavor (and maybe some fresh chopped herbs, too) then put the butter back in the fridge until you're serving the corn. People love that. They'll say, "How did you get stuff into the butter?" And you can just chill out next to your giant pile of corn and say, "I'm the Captain of Corn. That's how."
