The corn is preggers!

(With tasty, tasty babies)
---
See them nice bulges? I count at least 5 bulges, as of today. And the new silk is forming- the little white hairs are sticking out of the joint at the leaves and stalk. I'm so excited about having corn babies I can't see straight.
.
If corn has a bun in the oven, is it cornbread? Yuckyuck! Aw, stop! What am I, straight outta Hee Haw? It's also making me hum Glen Campbell songs- "Little Green Apples", if you must know. Arrghh! Make it stop!
.
Apparently, this is the effect corn in the garden is having on me.

(Full confession- I love Glen Campbell. It reminds me of being a little girl, trying to take a nap in my grandma's bedroom, while my grandpa sits in his rocking chair on his shady back porch and fiddles with his transistor radio. But please don't tell my hipster friends.)

I have to say that I'm a little freaked out that I found myself singing along to "Little Green Apples". How old am I?
Anyway, congratulations on your tassels and you'll find your baby corn shower gift on my blog.
