A Corny Welcome Home

Corn-1

We're HOME! 

And, as I knew and dreaded all the way home, THIS is what awaited us...17 bushels of sweet corn that needed to be picked and frozen!

 

Corn-2

Not that I don't love fresh Indiana sweet corn (Kim grows the very best in the world!) to eat, it's just not how I would choose to spend my first day home from vacation.

 

Corn-3

But when it's ready, it's ready.  So yesterday we husked our way through 17 bushels of picked corn...

 

Corn-5

...which became 5 bushels of husked raw corn...

 

Corn-6

...which, after many hours and who-knows-how-many gallons of water, ended up as...

 

Corn-4

...well over 100 bags of frozen cream-style corn.

Which will be absolutely DELICIOUS when the snow is flying in a few months!

And yes, there's a patch of late corn that has yet to ripen...corn is in our foreseeable future...

We came back from vacation to...

...a corny welcome home.
