Summertime ain't summertime for me 'til I've enjoyed two (2) things: (1) Cold watermelon on a hot afternoon and (2) Fresh corn on the cob (boiled or grilled) slathered w/butter and sprinkled w/salt and freshly ground pepper. So far this summer I've done the former but not the latter. Now though I've got a shot at harvesting, cooking, and eating corn I've planted (although mebbe not 'til Fall - I'm really not sure how long it takes to grow and mature). When Her Wildness (
wildwoosi) and
lightfoote asked me months ago what I'd like planted in the garden, I enthusiastically replied "CORN!" So, after several hours of hard labor prepping the soil w/the Amazing LightFoot during the heat of the day yesterday, we've got corn planted. I'm excited!
Meanwhile, the baby llama's learned how to SPROING and continues its mega-cuteness. Wiggles & Thumps was a blast, even though I slept through the whole nekkid slip 'n' slide session. Hmm, it's nice and sunny out, so mebbe I'll have a go at it later this afternoon...
Today's unscheduled for hours and hours ('til 1pm anyway). Yay for Down Time, that rare commodity. Off to Home (South) at the Hive o'morrow (via Amtrak) for a full week+ 'til we leave for FaerieWorlds - whoo-hoo!
