Somewhere.
I remember placing the corn cobs in a large airtight container. And placing the container....
Somewhere.
I just can't recall the exact location of the elusive somewhere.
I refuse to buy more corn cobs until I find the ones I already have, and the squirrels have eaten all of them.
Besides, HEB didn't have any. Yes. I checked.
But only because the squirrels are hungry. And I might have to buy some corn to tide them over until I can find that blasted bag. But it's a moot point since HEB didn't have any squirrel corn cobs.
What they did have was frozen corn on the cob.
No, I did not buy the squirrels frozen corn on the cob--my freezer is full. Besides, I just need to find that bag of cobs. It's...
Somewhere.
Okay, so I don't have freezer space for squirrel corn. But the squirrels have to eat and HEB also has fresh packaged corn on the cob--already shucked, silks removed, and cut into same size ears.
But I'm not buying packaged corn for the squirrels either. I'll sometimes splurge and buy it for me, but I usually just grab the loose ears in the produce department. They are great nuked--easy peasy, and depending on the time of year they run 4-6 for $1. I figure I can shell out a buck until I locate that stupid bag of squirrel corn. Besides, I'll probably get to eat most of the fresh ears.
I guess it's still too early in the season. Or else Covid has run up the price of corn. They were 3 for $1. And the ears were unimpressive. Still, the squirrels need to eat and I can have the remaining ears once I find the bag.
It'll be a race to see who gets to eat the remaining two ears of corn--me or the squirrels--but I'm going through all the cabinets today. So I'm confident I'll win the race. I really like corn on the cobb.
When I find that bag of squirrel corn, they better not turn their noses up at it, because I'm not going to be buying them fresh corn on a regular basis. This is a one time purchase for the squirrels--and only because it's an emergency.
I already spoil my other kids--locally sourced small batch dog food, no cat food made in China or Taiwan, premium bird seed, home-made dye-free Audubon approved nector for the hummers, water features for the birds, toads, and fireflies--and the list goes on. I'm not adding buying fresh corn for the squirrels to the list. At least not on a regular basis. Not after today.
But I'll check Amazon for fresh corn storage.

Just in case.
