Michelle Obama is on TV as a part of the Democratic Convention. The First Lady, a champion for kids, teaches them to become fit by eating nutritious foods and to keep moving -- to exercise.
Barok O Lee is one of those highly nutritious foods.
Listening to Michele speak so eloquently about her husband brings a smile to my face. A majestic couple.
Addendum to this post: One of the staff at Extension emailed me to say sending this to the MG's via the MG Google Group was inappropriate. This is one of the unfortunate ways the MG program is changing.

The Rains Came
At this time of year, the corn cobs should be visible about 1/3 of the way up the stalk but this year many stalks show no signs of actual cobs or the cobs are very small. The soybean harvest will probably be about what it was in years past.
The farmers make out like bandits because of federal insurance so the politicians are trying to rewrite the US Farm Bill.
Then last Thursday through Sunday we received over 8" of rain, so much rain, the Lions Ear (12 ' high) and the Purple Moonflowers keeled over. Old panty hose came to the rescue as Ed and I tied the sorry plants to the fence.
