Shucking corn by the Tots...


A simple little look into how they mimic me. They know that I peel the husks back but they don't know why or how but they get that it needs to be done. This was a fun and simple way to include them in the dinner process even if I had to finish it it off. Their favourite way of eating the corn is on the cob and our favourite preparation is on the bbq with the silks removed incased in the husks, baked until black and kernels are kissed with colour.  Butter, salt, and pepper for the tots and ground up dried chili powder for my husband and I.... Nothing beats corn in the late summer months.

Summer is coming! Summer is coming.


We woke up yesterday morning to a nice bright sky, zero plans and two rowdy (almost) four yr olds. How do we spend the day in the sun, be active and run the energy out of the tots? We slake on the sunscreen, pack up the kids and take them to a farm....
let the tots roam

put them to work
