1,300 Ears - From the Field to the Freezer!

Today was our big corn day.
We started early this morning and picked 1,300 ears. Piles... ...and piles... ...and piles of corn! Getting the corn ready for the freezer "Up to their necks in corn" Ready for the freezer! By 5:00 the corn was all in the freezer and the kitchen was clean once again. When our grandmother heard that we were doing corn today she called and said that she was bringing dinner over for us. That was a special treat after a long day! Thank you, Mama Flo!
