Just harvested these turnips. They are about the size of a god ball and you can sauté them or eat them raw in a salad. The lowly turnip is really quite a beautiful little veggie. Happy Monday #urbangarden #kelleyandco #santabarbara #freshcut

This is the worlds oldest door in my garage. I think it's pretty cute. All hardware is still there too. Circa 1925. Any thoughts on what it n might be useful for? The paint is putty sort of brownish grung 😄 should I strip it?
