We’re looking at some snow later this evening into tomorrow. If it goes SOUTH, no problem - if it hits us - it could get ugly, quick!

I had a FABULOUS crop of ‘Puffy Pop’ popcorn this season and I just started shelling it. 1 cob down, 67 to go, LOL!

I’m going to wrap three ears together in a nice cello bag and tie with raffia and give some as Christmas Gifts this season. They can shell their own d@mn popcorn! :)

(Just start a row with a spoon - easy-peasy, just TIME consuming. Good evening project while watching a movie...)

I have salad greens growing under lights in the house; kind of a treat, actually.

My ‘Thanksgiving’ Cactus is in full bloom - Peach, really pretty right now.

Still can’t figure out how to post pictures, which annoys me to no end!

Had a traditional Thanksgiving Meal with family & friends on Thursday; still in a Food Coma from that, though I have Elk steaks marinating and will grill and serve them with potatoes from our garden and some corn from the store and a salad made from the greens mentioned above. ;)

Not QUITE in the mood to decorate for Christmas, yet, but I am listening to Christmas Music! :)

Those ears of corn will look very pretty.

We had Thanksgiving at my youngest daughter’s so I had an easy day. I only had to make mashed potatoes and potatoes augraten. She did the rest-I bought the turkey and some of the ingredients.

Elk steaks sounds interesting. We got fried chicken from the deli about a half hour ago. So I’m stuffed.

Do you have any tips on shelling Pomegranates DiW?

I thought about planting popcorn.

Is there a huge difference between home grown and store bought?

Is the popcorn to die for?

Does it have huge flavor like home grown maters?
