We were told to make sure they take a bakers dozen too, just incase they get a bad ear of corn.
That was the best corn, fresh out of the field and on the dinner table.
Boy, I feel old now. That was over 35 years ago.
I better take my Geritol and go to bed.
He he ..... Believe me Dean .... Geritol doesn't help .... If it did I would drink the whole bottle .... Ha ha .
I guess wer're so old that" Mellow" doesn't know what geritol is.
Anyways just to tell you I got my corn yesterday form one of those farm trucks and had to pay $6.00 for the dozen ... How times have changed .... wow .25 cents for a dozen that was way back when ...????
But the corn was sweet and real tasty ..... I ate two cobs , with butter of course..... first of the season plus nice Ontario peaches with ice cream .... yum..
