0/20/19 - On 7/17, I enjoyed my first straight out of the garden sweet corn.  It was delicious. 

On 7/18, I learned about taking a cob of corn, leaving the husk on, putting in some water for at least an hour and then grilling on an open fire.  It was also delicious.

On 7/19, we processed about 9 dozen ears of corn for the freezer.  It was quite interesting  how niece Katie does the corn so I learned alot.  She boils the corn with husk on for 8 minutes, then into a cold tub of water, I then husked the corn and because it was boiled, the silk of the corn came off with the husking.  I then put the husked corn in another tub of cold water to just a few of the left over silk on corn and then into another tub of cold water to rest for a few minutes and then she uses a thing that takes the kernals off the cob.  We had an assembly line working and we were done in a little over two hours.  She got 10 bags of sweet corn and they are in the freezer for use this winter.  Here are a few pictures of our operation:
