Sarah's Cordless Heating Pads

CORDLESS HEATING PAD
As legend has it, in an old rural Missouri farm house, the cold nights were made warmer with a Corn Sack. During the day, a large pan of shelled corn was warmed under the kitchen wood burning stove. Before be, mom would distribute the corn into sacks, one for each family member. That hot Cornsack warmed the bed feet or anything for quite a while. Every morning, before breakfast, the corn was returned to the pan under the stove to warm for the next evening's use.
My friend Sarah makes these corn sacks and sells them at fairs and it keeps the users warm.  I know that a lot of her friends have used them at home football games during the cold months to keep themselves warm.
