Today my friend Joan came over so we could work on a new project. She brought her "sew together" bags at my insistence and I was blown away by her fabric choices.
I must make another one. Soon. I need one for small sewing projects. My current one is for small knitting projects. I don't know about you, but I like to "grab and go" when I am taking a project somewhere to work on. I can't be messing around with transferring contents between bags.
Chris and I did the annual sweet corn run this week. We each played our parts... based on our talents. Because he is a more meticulous cleaner, he shucks. I cut, freeze, and bag.
One side dish for Thanksgiving dinner, done.
Happy Friday. Have you read this excellent commentary from one of my favorite bloggers - Kristin Nicholas? I have been thinking about it since I read it earlier in the week. In the event that you don't follow her, I am sharing, because it's worth a read. Whether you are putting up corn, making a bag, starting a project with a friend, or staying home to read a book this weekend, I hope it fulfills your idea of "making the world a beautiful place". Thanks Kristin for a lovely piece of writing.
Never too many patters!
Thanks so much for the referral to Kristin Nicholas blog post, I thought it was great and left a comment referencing you.

I hope you are a fan of Martha Stewart's corn chowder recipe: she throws those stripped cobs into boiling water and simmers them for awhile to produce the stock for the chowder. It's a great recipe, and and a neat way to get some more corn flavor into a dish.
