good stuff

If you buy parsnips and rutabaga chances are your local Safeway check out person will start frantically leafing through the lists that are taped to the cash out register and grab for the phone, if you don't help him out. That's sad because both are really good. They can be diced and fried and mixed with meat. And they can be cut into bigger pieces and baked in the oven. And then there is the mashed rutabaga. That's good stuff. Mash it with some potato for texture and a carrot for color. Salt, pepper, butter, maybe some stock. Yum.
