Cindy,
Laughing over the ''guilty'' bacon! I gave up wine. I'd have to have someone hide it from ME!
I like rutabaga. It might need a longer growing season than I have.
Tom,
And yes, my parsnip was a bitter store bought one. Leaving them in the ground isn't something I've done with carrots because I don't have a good mulch.
Sandy,
It happens to the best of us!
Farmerdill,
Nice looking root crops!
