    Holy crow, those look awesome! Maybe I'll start collecting
    corn holders, I would covet those.

    I actually saw some really CUTE corn holders when I googled for them.

    This is pathetic, I admired that set so much I googled them ...
    try googling Hacker corn holders and you will find that every site
    with corn holders for sale is Hacker Safe.

    THAT is interesting... ;-)

    Some of the cutest corn holders I found were some animal ones.
    One holder is the front half of the critter (like a cow or pig) and the
    other holder is the back half.

    That would be so cute for dinner guests!

    Since I did not live with my father I have now idea where or when he
    bought them. Daddy died 40 years ago so it may be a lost cause.

    Thanks, Susan. Me, forever the genealogist, looking at names -- Hacker was
    a pioneer in WV in 1769 -- just curious.

    As I was jabbing my corn on the cob with my little
    metal cornholders, I remember I ordered new ones that
    haven't arrived. Right there, in front of the soon-to-be old
    ones, I mentioned I'd ordered their replacements!

    Pampered Chef peddles some that screw into the ear of corn. You screw
    it in before you cook (stovetop) the corn. The handles don't get hot to
    touch. I like them but usually only use them for La Twerp.

    They look like silver plate... are they?

    In any case, that "screw" type leaves me cold. Give me the two
    pronged variety.

    A couple of bites in, the left hand corn holder took

    into my cheek.

    You better copyright that name "When corn holders attack". What a perfect
    B movie horror flick name.

    No. That would be a C movie 🙂

    Last night I watched part of a movie that was that bad on Netflix
    online. It was called something like Cheerleader Ninjas.

    Cheerleader Ninjas is wonderful in its cheesiness. My husband
    rented it, intending to watch it by himself while I sat and read a
    book, but I was so fascinated by Cheerleader Ninjas that I watched
    the entire thing, transfixed.

    The use of the blow-up sex doll as a stunt double was possibly the
    best part.

    I am so going to have to rent that now and play it at my sisters' place
    with some Act II popcorn or something...
