A Regular Orvillle Redenbacher

Dear Peep, 
Since the summer you have been anxiously awaiting the time when Bahboo's popcorn could be picked and shucked.  Last week he gave us a call asking if we could come help him collect it all.  You were excited and decided you needed to bring your special blue bucket to carry it.  You shucked and picked, picked and shucked and then were over it.  Two buckets full.  Your enthusiasm diminished once you discovered it had to be taken off the cops and dried for a period of time before you'd be able to eat it.  
It was still fun and a great way to spend a beautiful November afternoon.
Love, Mama

Cool! Much bigger cobs than what we grew as a kid. Ours were little tiny cobs with red kernels.
