Homegrown Popcorn

Last summer we grew popcorn and we are enjoying it this winter.  The cobs were short, maybe only four inches long, and the kernals are sharp.  Our popping rate isn't as much as commercial popcorn, but it the best flavored stuff I've ever had.  We've quickly decided that anything less than three batches won't do.

Our first cheese in three weeks is drying in the pantry.  We are selling more milk and just haven't had the extra to make into cheese.  We mentioned to the kids that maybe we would buy some cheese at the store but they were unanimous, "No!!" 

My daughters are goofy for chickens.  They regularly bring up a chicken to show off.  This one is Churp, a little bantam silkie.  She's wet from the rain and they wanted a picture of her.
