Best way to keep sweet corn. Back from the farmer's market today (cool idea, it's open Thur. 4 p.m. -8 p.m.) with a bunch of great, just picked sweet corn. If we don't eat it all, what's the best way to save it? I've read chilling it makes the sugars turn to starch quickly, but is it OK to leave on the counter?
March Madness traces back to Illinois' statewide high-school basketball tournament, which began in 1908. In 1939, an official with the Illinois High School Association, Henry V. Porter, penned an article called March Madness for the organization's in-house magazine.
Now that weâre halfway through March, you may ask yourself, âWhen does March Madness start?â. Donât worry, you haven't missed out on the 2013 NCAA tournament just yet, even though weâre nearing April. March Madness begins on Tues., March 19. And right about now is the time to start preparing for the tournament, because on Sunday, March 17, a field of 68 teams will be announced during Selection Sunday. The term âMarch Madnessâ is somewhat of a misnomer, because the 2013 NCAA tournament runs until April 8, when a champion will be crowned in Atlanta.
