Justin and Kasie visited us this evening. They are such a cute couple and we enjoyed hearing about their New Year's Eve Camping trip. With the thermometer reading a crispy 27 degrees they were snug in their sleeping bags in a tent near the Buffalo River. Can you believe it! Way too much adventure for me. As our conversation went from one topic to another the subject of turnips came up. Now, my brother Jim carries turnips in the truck on his daily rounds and eats them like apples. I don't think Kasie inherited his good taste and it seems that Justin had never eaten turnips raw. Well, we have a stash of crispy wild turnips in the refrigerator so I showed them just how good they can be. Cold, crispy and crunchy, sliced thin and spread with Peanut Butter, organic of course. They ate 'em and pretended to like 'em. I don't know if they really did or were just being polite to two old people who like Wild Turnips and Peanut Butter.

Try dipping those raw turnip slices in your favorite chip dip or low cal Ranch dressing.
