Brown the bacon pieces in a large pot. When cooked through, place on paper towels.
Leave the fat and drop in the onion, garlic, carrot and celery with the fresh thyme for 6-7 minutes.
Add butter and melt. Add flour and cook for 2-3 minutes over medium heat, stirring to prevent sticking. Gradually add milk, stirring constantly. Add corn, saving 1/2 cup for decoration.
