A Worm in Every Ear


He was The Statue of Liberty

This past weekend was both busy and wonderful. My family spent it with me.  We had such a good time.  I had a bushel of Seneca Chief Corn and of Dixie Lee Peas to shuck and shell.  I was glad to have their help. This little one had never shucked corn nor shelled peas before so it was quite an experience. 





I think he likes it.



Baby brother  just ate and relaxed.
He is such a good natured baby you can just put him anywhere 
and he is happy.


It used to be a running joke at our house that
there was a worm in every ear of corn....

A boy's dream come true 
a worm, in fact lots of worms...

and


Look what was playing on the bowl
of peas.





I think he had a really good time, in fact
he didn't want to go home.



We took a break after all of the hard work
to eat lunch.


Cleaning the corn



Blanching the corn



Ready to be put into freezer bags 



I hope you all had a Happy Father' Day and hope
that you have a great week ahead.

Until next time,

  3. We have found many worms in born! I hear if you drip oil on the silk that it prevents them.. like vege oil, not motor oil
