when life hands you ears of corn...

decorate your home with them!



Seen in France
Updated after Claudie's comment: near the Chateau de Miolans, between Albertville and Chambery...
And I am adding this information about the castle for google's sake :)
"Its most famous guest was the infamous Marquis de Sade who, despite the prison's formidable reputation, nonetheless escaped using the trite but proven method of torn bedsheets woven into a rope..."

And updated again because of the corn palace information left in the comments!

    confirmation again that the French are not to be trusted with anything more complicated or critical than bread and wine.

    Pretty cool, but have you seen the Corn Palace? It's covered in corn. There's even a Web cam on their site, so you can watch the goings-on in front of the Corn Palace every dday.
