Yeah, riiiiiight. You can go tell that story to somebody that doesn't recognize big and gorgeous vegetables! Love the cabbage. Looks like you are a fairly talented gardener. Hay bales are a wonderful medium. I have so much ground that I've never done those, but just for looks alone I might try.
If you knew how much effort I put into it and how little I get in return you would agree I lack something. The cabbage was one of my best efforts.
