We put up our last batch of corn last night. I'm glad to be done. During corn season we eat and eat it, and put up bags and bags, and in three weeks we are tired of it. Jim always plants two rows at a time 2 weeks apart, and it is usually all ready with in a week.
The tally: 1st run, 17 1/2 dozen ears of corn = 50 quart bags.
2nd, 11 dozen ears = 33 quart bags
3rd, 10 dozen ears = 32 1/2 quart bags, this batch was almost too mature, thus more bags.
I pulled up most of the onions this morning. They are larger than usual and no so very many that have that rottenness at the bottom. That seems more prevalent with the yellow ones. I put another gallon of beans in the freezer this week, and made more pickles, 5 1/2 quarts of Bread and Butter pickles, 4 quarts of "Caddie" pickles, which are like a "sweet and sour" pickles, and 4 quarts of dills.
