.... of frozen corn, that is! The kids picked and brought in about 250 ears of sweet corn from our garden. 
We had quite the operation of husking, blanching, cutting and bagging it, so that it was done in about half a day.
Vanilla had a very important role.....
Great work, kids! This was sweetest tasting corn! We had a hard time not eating it, but of course, guess what was for dinner.... :)
Yesterday was Jeremy's Birthday, and we had a great celebration with family and friends.
We had grilled chicken with peach BBQ sauce, hot dogs, brats, grilled summer squash (it was a great way to use some of our pile of squash!), a BLT salad, picnic eggs, chips w/ peach salsa & and more! It was a feast that was put together by many!
What a wonderful time of year with so many fresh foods!
I believe that Jeremy thoroughly enjoyed his brownie cake! We then made hot fudge brownie sundaes with raspberries and peaches.
Games of badminton, croquet & kick the can, and fellowship was enjoyed by all. 
Well, the first picking is in, and it sure is a big one!
My plans are to slice some and freeze it for soups and other cooking in the winter, shred some for baking with, and finding willing recipients for the rest.
My mom is coming over tomorrow and we will have a big bake day! We like to make up many loaves of zucchini bread to freeze. The perfect fast food :)
I think I need another freezer....
The kids used the lawn mower and wagon to haul the squash up to the house :)
