It's funny to think back on the tiny plants that first poked their brave heads out of the soil in my garden. They are all grown up now and yielding their edible yumminess to my little family. I ventured into the garden to do round one of the corn harvest. Grace, of course, followed me. She loves the garden because she adores mud and likes being helpful and picking t
hings (you should have seen the small pile of green tomatoes she presented me with one day). We walked the four short rows of corn and harvested 10 ears. Grace pulled the corn down with vigor and delight, and watched the earwigs scatter with disgusted interest. We marched back to the house with our armload of corn and had some for dinner the next day...it was delicious!
