SWEET CORN!
Yep, we're in the midst of it. The other day when my sister was here from South Carolina, she helped me do 2 1/2 5 gallon buckets worth.
Last night, Brent and the kids went outside to take the remaining ears off what is in the corn patch.
Ugh.
I was in the house shucking it as fast as I could, and cooking it at the same time to slice off and put in containers.
We started around 6:30 and by 10:30 I was still working on it, with 6 buckets in the basement to go.
That's for today.
At least it wasn't ready the week of the fair like it was last year. That was too much!
Anyone putting anything in their freezer now?
Up next....canned pizza sauce.
You have really done some work here! I love fresh corn. Haven't done any canning this year because of hubby's surgery...we didn't have a garden. It has been so hot here, any who planted didn't have much to share or sale. It is nice to see the entire family working together...the way it should be! Love this post!

Someday I hope to have a garden and can like this! SOME DAY once we move out of town.
ReplyDeleteI have got to find a good price on sweet corn so I can get some put up in our freezer. RIght now it seems to be going for $4 a dozen and that seems a little steep - considering the amount I was hoping to buy. Sigh!
