The 10th Annual International Rutabaga Curl has concluded another intense competition at the Farmer's Market in Ithaca, New York. Our congratulations to Commissioner Steve and all the individual and team participants for a very successful event.
As we watch this exciting sport grow exponentially, we at ARSI are hopeful that rutabaga curling will become a regular event in the winter Olympics, starting in 2010 at Vancouver, B.C.

Great idea--root vegetable competitions in the Olympics! Who do I contact to make this possible? And how do we make sure that turnips are excluded?
You got a problem with turnips? Just because they're more popular with consumers, right? Get a grip.
Sektionen E-tjänster och blanketter innehåller ett urval blanketter och e-tjänster som hör till organisationer inom statsförvaltningen och kommunerna. Respektive organisation har själv valt ut de blanketter som finns tillgängliga!
I have rarely had more fun reading a blog. I must admit, I've never eaten a Rutabaga, having viewed them skeptically and in ignorance. I am now motivated to try. I just hope they don't smell as bad as parsnips when cooking, we have enough dirty socks to deal with.
Aren't rutabagas and turnips the same thing?
And if it is rutabaga month, why have you not updated?
Rutabegas are apparently SWEDISH turnips. Wikipedia says they are a cross between CABBAGE and TURNIPS.

This is a gross oversight on the part of staff, and it has elicited an immediate response (see our latest blog entry). Thanks for the reminder, and stay tuned.
Peabodysplace: "Swede" is another name for rutabagas, and it's still used in the U.K. and elsewhere. But Swedes are the same as ordinary rutabagas (not that a rutabaga could ever be ordinary).
