CORN FRITTERS

Growing up in the Southland (uh, that would southern Connecticut), we loved eating corn fritters in the summer time. Don’t know why we never ate them in the Winter, but they were a constant summer treat for us. With the Nine Days coming, corn fritters are a good food treat for the days of milchiqs.
