Me and the Corn!

[journey11]

Pretty corn, Bay! I still have a couple of ears like those purple ones that I bought for decoration a couple years ago. Not sure why I kept them other than they were just too pretty to throw away and they'd probably sprout if I tossed them in the compost.

Plant it and see what happens! :tools

I thought about it. I got the corn from a u-pick family farm around here that grows lots of things, so I figured maybe it would be crossed with something else.

Boy-Howdy! When I wallop myself with the stupid-stick, it seems like I just can't stop! I have had the wash pan of corn in the house, drying S-L-O-W-L-Y. It was drying, but it was not hard yet, and I really want to mill some and make cornbread. So I took the wash pan outside and set it in the sun.

It rained.

STUPID! STUPID! STUPID!

Sigh.........

we got 3/4" and I am very grateful, but I didn't remember the corn until after it quit raining and I went outside to check the rain gauge. I poured off the water, brought it inside and dried it off with a towel. Then I put it back outside. Hoping for more rain. I brought it back in last night.

We have a 20% chance of rain today.............going to put the wash pan of corn back outside...........
