I shared photos of this year's corn harvest on Instagram. Harvesting corn at night before the rains roll in is eerie and romantic all at once. I highly recommend taking a ride in a combine with a sexy farmer. It might lead to this:

Pink Lemonade for two

A refreshing homemade lemonade recipe.

Prep Time 10 minutes

Total Time 10 minutes

Ingredients

12 fresh cherries, pitted
2 whole lemons
¼ cup sugar

Instructions

Place 6 cherries in the bottom of each jar and muddle with the handle of a wooden spoon. Break them up very well to release all the juice.
Squeeze the juice of a lemon into each jar on top of the cherries. You should get approximately 3-4 tablespoons of juice.
Next, dissolve ¼ cup sugar in ½ cup water on medium heat in a sauce pan. Once it has dissolved, let cool for 5 minutes.
Divide the sugar water between the jars, then fill the rest with cold water. Shake and enjoy!
