When someone gives you beautiful corn already picked, you have to "put it up" Dad came over and saw the proceedings. He mentioned some nifty tool some friend had that makes getting the corn off the cob much easier. He ended up going online to locate a source and off we went to what was called "MSI" This tool is wonderful! We had our corn done by time the purchase was made but the Ritchie's volunteered to try it out. Dad was overjoyed to see it lived up to his expectations. The corn-sheller is available by appointment at the compound. It is slightly messy to use so dress for the occasion.
I grew up in a military family and married a military guy. Since his retirement a few years ago, our lives have revolved around small town living and family. I am at a turning point in my life where I am "squished in the middle" between children, grandchildren and my elderly parents. It is tough finding the balance. Everyone tells me I need to quit trying to make everyone happy. I have always known if I'm not happy, no one is! However, making that happen is easier said than done!!!
