Els over in the Netherlands ( don't ask me it's Dutch) has suggested a Going Gently " Trelawnyd Flower Show" competition on the back of the fact that " The Great British Bake Off" is back on tv next week.
She suggested that bloggers photograph a baking creation of their own , which they could send me
( jgsheffield@hotmail.com)..the best entry would be judged by myself ( of course)
Well this got me thinking
And so, I propose a slightly altered version of this idea
And so
Bloggers, readers and hangers on...please send me a photo of your own " NOVELTY VEGETABLE"
The veg creation has to be all your own work, and not just a nicked photo from google!
To give you an example of the standard I am looking for, please look at the winning entry from last year's show

I will print out all the entries and will ask the veg judge at the Flower Show to mark them for a bit of fun
Any entries will be displayed at the show itself for all the whole village to view
A prize will be given for first and second place!
So dig out your imagination and your cucumbers and get to work......
I will show all entries on Going Gently as and when they come in
Good luck............
All entries have to be submitted by Wednesday 6th Aug
Ooh, I like a challenge! You'd be surprised what I can do with a marrow!
ReplyDeleteOhh err missus
DeleteSound like an excellent idea now if only I had any vegetable inspiration.
ReplyDeleteJulie... Go on get yer arse into gear
DeleteAnd a village viewer's choice, too, if you please.
ReplyDeleteOk..I will but a notepad next to the photos and get the great trelawnyd population judge the winner!
DeleteOh how exciting. I will go and get the melons and start designing.
ReplyDeleteOh lord, what have I started?
DeleteI've always fancied producing a sausage with a suitably inappropriate 'serving suggestion' photo on the wrapping. 'You know what you can do with that, don't you?', etc.
ReplyDeleteThat will put some colour in the trelawnyd ladies cheeks
DeleteDid you mean... 'between'?
DeleteWhat fun.
ReplyDeleteI've got some lovely courgettes, whoppas they are :o)
ReplyDeleteWhat can you make out of them I wonder?
Deletehooray I cant wait to see peoples entries
ReplyDeleteI want to see yours!
DeleteHmmmmm.....the wheels are turning.
ReplyDeleteHope you realise what you've let yourself in for! x
ReplyDeleteGet your root veg ready
DeleteBe careful what you ask for...! hehehe
ReplyDeleteThis is SO my sort of thing! Sophisticated, artistic, creative, cultured (get it?) taking blogging to another plain. I'm off hot foot to the garden . I usually do vegetable monster with the grandchildren and have never
ReplyDeletebeen allowed to enter...no old...honest!
What have you started?!
GIll
Gill...... Go find a potato
DeleteOoh, challenge accepted. Off now to inspect me carrots and parsnips!
ReplyDeleteBet you'll design a goat!
DeleteEXCITED!!
ReplyDeleteRemember in by wednesday
DeleteDoes a plastic Mr. Potato Head count?
ReplyDeleteLove,
Janie
No janie,.
DeleteYou need to be more creative than that...let's see your arty side
I don't have an arty side.
DeleteChallenge accepted -- Will a bribe help? ;-)
ReplyDeleteOnly one over 100$
DeleteOk a question: does this include pre and post digestion photo's, of vegetables? Important question, because post digestion would entail some other, ahem, things. Let's review what happens to vegetable....
ReplyDeleteThe GI tract starts with the mouth and proceeds to the esophagus, stomach, small intestine (duodenum, jejunum, ileum), and then to the large intestine (colon), rectum, and terminates at the anus. You could probably say the human body is just like a big donut. The GI tract is the donut hole.
So, vegs might have one appearance at one place, before mastication, and another when it completes it's journey down the ahem, creek.
Are there limitations to this contest?
Cheers,
Mike.
Mad as a badger
DeleteI will accept any photo within the limits of taste and decency
Great idea! Now, if only I can come up with a great idea.
ReplyDeleteWhat's the deadline? I know I should know. But I don't.
ReplyDeleteOh, John, if only you'd come up with this some years ago. I wouldn't have needed to style anything. I pulled out a potato - home grown and earthy, I pulled out a carrot - homegrown and earthy. Then I laughed. My exhibits might as well have been you and Chris. With all bits in the right place.
U
Get the photo to be by midnight on Wednesday Ursula...that's plenty of fine to be creative
DeleteDo tomatoes count as veg? I've got a mouldy one.
ReplyDeleteYes....can't wait to see what you do with it
DeleteToo late now, 'fraid. Didn't want it to deteriorate further so, after shearing off infected part I've gone and scoffed the circumcised remainder. But looking for alternatives.
DeleteThese things are great fun. We are away for the weekend, but will try and rustle one up on our return. It will probably involve yellow courgettes!
ReplyDeleteExcellent! Thank you gary
DeleteNo inspiration here; but can't wait to see the photos!
