Husking Corn
A few friends have been telling me to try husking the corn this way - boil with the husks on, then remove. Of course this isn't a good way to do it for freezing it, but eating and otherwise. I'll be honest, I'm sticking to the old fashioned way. There was still hair on the corn, and I could not fit as many cobs in my largest pot with the husks on.

It's On!! The Hitch is On!
Sunday morning we were up at 5am, and couldn't sleep, so we backed the truck up in the driveway and put the new hitch on! It's on finally, after not camping for a year and a half!! I am so excited, but unfortunately school will be starting next month. Here's hoping for some nice fall weekends.
We celebrated our hard work with an afternoon motorcycle ride, and live entertainment and lunch on the patio (at the restaurant).
Oh, I have a list of canning to get done, and we have already chalked off Friday from doing any work, so it'll be a busy week in the kitchen (and garden).
