Personal Notes:
A turnip recipe in the cookbook? That's not anybody's favorite! However, we're working on eating our vegetables and are now receiving vegetable shares from the Vermont Valley Community Farm. The organic food is a part of a Community Supported Agriculture (CSA) model and gives us a chance to try different vegetables, whether we like it or not.
