Yesterday Dad harvested our first two ears of corn from our garden. It was so exciting. This is the first time we have ever tried to grow corn. I was able to sample it. It was delicious. Although it was harvested a little early, the kernels weren't quite mature but they were still really sweet and delicious. Just a little small.
It is so cool to be able to eat vegetables that were grown in your own garden. Mom also made a delicious zucchini casserole out of homegrown zucchini from our garden. It is fun to learn how to grow different vegetables. This is what the prophet has asked us to do, to learn how to grow a garden. It is very rewarding to plant a seed and watch it grow to produce different crops. I am so excited that we actually got some corn harvested from our first attempt at growing it. And it was delicious! I look forward to eating many more ears in the coming weeks.
We also got our wheat grinder back from the repair shop and were able to grind some wheat and make some wheat bread yesterday. It was fun. And quite delicious. I'm not a big fan of wheat bread but for being 100% whole wheat bread it was good. It was fun to watch wheat kernels turn into bread in a matter of hours.
We had corn on the cob last night and I was actually thinking about your corn and wondering if it was almost ready for you to eat.
