I'd eat a raw turnip each afternoon before dinner (while my Mom got the wine and the valium--hmm, now I'm thinking perhaps she had the better deal!) But they were never shaped like anything remotely Judaic...which frankly makes me feel I was robbed.<BR/><BR/>Oh well, back to therapy.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2455477065088022337.post-60717108328797722352008-10-07T09:02:00.000-04:002008-10-07T09:02:00.000-04:00I don't love turnips.

I love turnips! But I only really discovered them a few years ago. We never had them growing up - but I had a root "medley" from Whole Foods once - and a whole new world opened up for me...<BR/><BR/>But I understand your feelings. My husband loves - wait for it - okra.

So he hates everything except tortilla chips and cheese. Which is what he ate for every meal before we got married.<BR/><BR/>And unfortunately for him, he married a hippie. So not only do I like to eat things that grow, I like to eat things that grow in our garden.Lucy Filethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06101962728153916202noreply@blogger.com
