Got Corn?

Corn Fritter batter

I do! Several homegrown ears of sweet corn on the cob, given to us by one of Scott's co-workers. It's been awesome this summer exchanging produce with other gardening enthusiasts. I've traded lemom cucs, zucchini, berries, jam, and zuc relish for corn, apples, tomatoes, and plums. I've given bouquets of herbs and dahlias, and more pounds of apple zucchini than I could possible guess. It's been fun sharing God's blessings with others.

"Freely you have received ~ freely give." ~ Jesus, Matthew 10:8

Corn Fritters, salted and then slathered with butter.


Corn Fritters:
