Wamsted Crazy Beach Week: Shucking Corn

each night at the beach someone is in charge of dinner. there are enough couples/adult kids for each night but one. in the past, we've eaten leftovers, but there were no leftovers we could scrounge together for our kiddos this year. might have something to do with the big kid cousins. maybe ;o)

so between uncle ron and uncle dennis and ms gail, we had a shrimp peel feast along with fresh corn and a pull-everything-out-of-the-frig-throw-it-in kinda salad.

so a few of the big kid cousins were sent outside to shuck the corn. since addie was the oldest of the grandkid cousins, she got to stay up later and tag along with cousin graham (also known to her as raham) and cousin timmy!  cousin graham showed her how to peel the corn and pull all the strings off, and she was extraordinarily serious about her job! (no, that is not her drink sitting there!) then the other big kid cousins, travis and duncan, joined in! and between them and this little corn shucker...

the corn was clean in minutes!
