Christmas Turnips
Wednesday morning it was 5 degrees in the garden, so when someone at church this morning asked me if I still had turnips, I said,”I don’t know?” I just didn’t see how they could have survived the freeze, Our water line didn’t survive it! After Church services I walked out to the turnip patch to check on them and was pleasantly surprised to see that, even though the tops were burned back by the near zero temps, the actual turnips looked pretty good! I picked about 15 of them for our Church diner tonight. One of them is about 2 1/2 pounds!
