Emma grew this cabbage with her Grandma Nielson for a class contest. It was huge and beautiful, but she forgot to enter the contest. Oh, well. We know she's a winner!
We didn't have a scale big enough so they created a counterweight system with cans of food. Quite ingenious! I think it weighed 2 cans of green beans, 3 cans of chili, 1 can of pumpkin, and 3 cans of corn! It was around 10 pounds but I can't remember the total. All I remember is that Mom and Emma spent at least 30 minutes trying to weigh it and having a great time every time it fell! Grandmas are great fun!
