Arrghhh....there must be lots of that going round these days....At least you'll have some wonderful parched corn fillers to show for it (hopefully)....It's like everything I start mushrooms into a huge mess and I'm more behinder than ever!! Hope you have a happier - and more productive - weekend. And feel better! Smiles & Hugs ~ Robin

Work often consists of three times the effort, and four times good intentions! Somehow we survive! Because of the blessings, I think!

I 'start and stop' all day long!!! It's just become a way of life around here with me... I have 7 projects started at any given time -- none get finished!! Is it because we have so much on our minds?? I haven't figured that out yet, but I'm glad to read that others do the same thing!
Have a happy Labor Day weekend!

I made parched hearth corn a couple of weeks ago. I checked at my local feed store for whole corn but they only had like 20 lb. bags of it. I don't need that much corn:) So I dried some myself and it worked out. ok. Yours looks much better though. I love Gable House Musings. Thanks for sharing. -Steph-
