Shuckin' the Sunflower

I went to fill the tub to give the girls a bath tonight and saw the 4lb sunflower head I had cut out of our garden a few days ago. I had put it in the bathtub in a brown bag to let it dry out a little. So instead of giving the girls a bath, I got sidetracked and the girls and I went outside to tackle the sunflower. We pulled all the seeds out of the head and we ate quite a few. We sorted the seeds and kept the good ones and threw the rest to the birds. We even left some seeds in the Sunflower head for the gleaner birds like Boaz left for Ruth.

Then the girls all went in and got a shower.




Tomorrow we'll roast them. Mmmm!
