A couple of days ago we picked all the shell beans and they are in a
cardboard box in the family room. If I have to trip over them I
remember to shake them up a bit so they all dry. Also pulled all of
the plants from that box. Still have some Roma beans coming in.

Still have peppers (bell, jalapeno and Poblano), eggplant and a few
tomatoes coming in. Still picking blueberries. Just finished making
2 dozen bb muffins. Decided I would not tempt DH with the Blueberry
Pudding Cake.

Think I will make some Eggplant Parmigiana in a day or two. Eat some
and freeze some. Tonight it is corn pudding plus whatever else we
decide on.

i love the tactile feel of shelling and sorting
beans.

No. Think rice pudding but with no sugar but some spices and corn.

If you can cop a non-tactile feel you will get into less trouble.

We had a planting of sweet corn get away from us a bit (weather and
travel) so it had started to get a bit tough and doughy.

I cut the kernals off and ran them through my Italian tomato press
to get a nice, smooth paste and made corn pudding. I went with
cardamom and coriander for spices. YUMMM.

I mixed 2 eggs, 1/2 cup cream, 1/2 cup milk, 2 tb flour, 3/4 tsp salt,
1 tsp cardamom, 1/2 tsp coriander, and the results of processing
eight ears of overly-mature sweet corn.

Put it in a 1 qt. baking dish and dot with butter. Bake at 325 deg
for about 1 hour.

You could add some sugar to make this a dessert dish, or change
out the spices I used for, say, rosemary to make it more savory.
