Ol' Mama Nature never ceases to amaze me! Was pulling carrots yesterday and thought this one would never come out of the ground. After a few good tugs, without breaking the stems off, out came this humungous thing that is 16 1/2 inches long! Most of it edible, the root end to cut off is only about 2 inches. Wowsa! Also cut a kohlrabi that had split, and it looks like somebody's butt. :^O Also had chili peppers, 2 that had grown together at the top with a smaller one coming out the center of where the two joined. Can you picture it?:8}
People at work accuse me of putting Viagra on my garden.

I am just glad I read the post. I wasnt sure what you were talking about just by the subject. I thought you may have been constapated or something for a few days, and it finally came out. ? Speaking of viagara, A man walks in to the drug store, asks the pharmacists if they sale viagara, the pharmacists says yes, the man says can you get that over the counter, the pharmacists says, "If I take two of them I can". WHAAAA!! hope no one is offended by that, I just heard that yesterday, thought it was funny.
Am I in my cabin dreaming? Or are you really scheming, to take my ship away from me? You better think about it. I just cant live without it. So please dont take my ship from me!!!

Must be the good old perfect dirt we have here, or maybe because I generally buy the cheapie 10 cent seed packs and maybe there's some mutants in there. Whatever the cause, we always get a good laugh out of them. Mother Nature has a sense of humor too.
DH thinks it's because I'm a nurse and I look for body resemblances, after all, I see everything all day and I've seen it all, so to speak.
