NOT A FUCKING TURNIP!

   Today I pulled the rutabagas. I have never grown them before and figured that if all else fails I will have some good veg in the root cellar. A rutabaga is a brassica. A turnip is a mustard.  Like how tigers look like house cats but taste not at all the same. If you have only had them boiled and mashed and have an opinion on them(turnips or rutabagas) you are a fool. That would be like saying you do not like steak because you have only had it boiled.

   Oddly some got bigger than my head but still good to eat. I guess about 150lbs. I will grow these again for sure.

  The root cellar is full of some yummy stuff for the cold winter to come. I am thankful.

   I had a look a the potatoes and dug a few for the week. I only found signs of blight on one but I will leave most in the ground for now.

  It has been a frustrating year and in the end fruitful. Dust to stardust, ever onward.
