For my birthday I received a nifty tool called a corn cutter, it's basically a big Bobbi pin with a round knife in the middle. We tried it out a few days ago it was great, much faster. We got 8 bags but we have been eating it for several days in a row. Our next batch of corn is just coming on. It's the Optimum, which so far doesn't seem to be too much different.
Kelli got in the cutting action.
Kelli's on the left and Jake's on the right. I was manning the boys, music and boiling pots, as well as cutting off the bad ends from those disgusting corn worm-things. We have them in about25-40% of our corn. They are so gross, but Derek likes to collect them and feed them leaves and corn then abandon them so they die a slow painful death of heat exhaustion and starvation.
And this is my new experiement. Its Pineapple, Peach and Zucchini Jam. Made of shredded zucchini, a can of crushed pineapple and peach jello. However, it hasn't set up yet, so we may end up putting it on crapes with nutella.

I would like to see the corn thing work. I'm impressed you let Kelli cut the corn. We did 103 bags on Monday night. Each with about 3 cups in! Lots of great helpers. Frozen corn is the BEST! That last zuccini stuff looks interesting....
