Carter's Giant Cabbage!

Last year in Mrs. Swensons class, Carter brought home a small cabbage plant in a little cup and was given a challenge by his teacher to plant it, water it, and take care of it all summer. Well, we don't have a garden, but Bryce and Amanda (our friends that live next door), do have one and they let Carter plant it in the corner of their garden. They helped him grow it and take care of it. We were amazed at how well it did and how big it ended up being. We picked it this week and plan on making some Sarmale out of it. (Sarmale is a romanian dish which is stuffed cabbage rolls). It was a fun learning experience for Carter and he is excited to show it to Mrs. Swenson.
