  • Drizzly morning and I left a wheelbarrow load of popcorn out last night. I better shuck it today and get the ears under cover or it will get moldy. I would have preferred to leave it in situ in the garden a little longer before picking but I was in a race with the deer to harvest it. The crows and raccoons were also in the competition.

    If I’d left it under cover in the shed, then I wouldn’t have to shuck it right away. But I didn’t, and so it goes.
