Popcorn harvest

A relaxed day today after a busy few days. Thought we all needed some quiet time so I mostly left the bees to there own devices. Just regular good old fashioned playing! Lol! Actually the most lovely they have been to each other in ages. Playing nicely, pretty much no arguments over toys. A real joy to watch!
Pear crisp making... I slipped off to kitchen and done most of these and big bee came in towards the end and helped me with the corer. (A small round cutter) she loved pressing the middles out!
A bit of princess puzzle making on the ipad
And later after tea, Picking tomatoes for tomorrow's lunch!
Popcorn harvest! We noticed tonight the popcorn plants had started to get covered in green fly and as the cobs were ready we thought it was the best time. We've removed the plants and will just have to cross our fingers it didn't spread to other plants.
Peeling the quite sticky cobs
And a pretty pattern or 'sunshine' me and big bee made.
Tonight's haul! Now to decide what to do with the space in the poly tunnel where the sweet corn was...
