Title: Freaky fruits and veges.
Post by: uptown on September 12, 2009, 09:31:41 am

Tomtoms avatar sprung to mind when I picked this minifunfun from our garden the other day. Me thinks that fruit's been fibbing!
Bonjoy doubtless has a phd in freaky fruit, but what other novelty crops have ukbers got on their patch?

I've got a shed door that looks like Esther Ranson's teeth.

I once found a mini green pepper inside a red pepper:

I don't like it when that happens, I feel like some kind of back street abortionist removing the baby pepper.   :'(

Although thinking about it, that's not very rational when I then go on to chop the mummy pepper into pieces without any guilt.  :-\

Found another Giant puffball on my parents patch at the weekend, those fellas are freaky. The giant brain lasted many meals, yum yum - not dissimilar to tofu really.

Good find. Pretty unusual to get them so late in the year. Must be due to the plentiful rain and late first frost.
