Putting My Feet in the Dirt 15 – Torturous Turnips

“What are these, white beets? I don’t even like red or purple beets!”

Mom replies to five year old helper: “They’re not beets, they’re turnips. They are sort of like potatoes with a little bite to them..” as she added them to the ham and vegetable soup. “With the onions and ham bone, everything practically tastes the same anyway.”

“Ham bone? You’re putting a bone in the soup? Yuck!”

“That’s enough helping me with dinner today, Mikey. Run outside to help your father.”
