Cabbage

At the end of last school year, all the third graders were given a cabbage start to grow over the summer. The first day of fourth grade they had to take in a picture of them with their cabbage and report how much it weighed. I guess the best cabbage in the state was destined to win a thousand dollars toward college or something. Only four kids in Elyse's class were able to get theirs to grow. Here's Elyse with her 3lb, 9 oz cabbage. She wasn't selected to represent our school, but she did win a stop watch. And we ate that delicious cabbage for dinner last week with our Sukiyaki. I'm surprised the poor thing made it. I had her stick it in the back corner where it was shadowed by a pine tree and all the tomatoes.
