The most requested side by family, friends and guests at my house is always scalloped corn, no matter what the season. In summer, it is followed by potatoes, carrots, onion and corn cooked in a foil pouch on the grill. No one will ever complain if mac and cheese is on the menu either. Not fancy, just basic comfort food. I don't care for fresh sliced cucumbers, but I love a dish of cucumber refrigerator pickles.
