Just when all hope was lost, what should we see but the tassles of corn, making their way out from the top of what must be a 12 or 13 foot stalk of corn.

Corn is a drag in Northern California, under the best of circumstances, but this has been horrible. I hope I get a few cobs at least out of this. Just one batch of masa for tortillas and this experiment with Chiapas corn will have been worth it. I think.
