My Cabbage Blog

I am a 3rd grade student trying to win a 1,000 dollar scholarship by growing a Bonnie Plants Cabbage for their 3rd Grade Cabbage Contest. I want to get this scholarship to help me go to college and get a good job when I am older. If you would like to read more about the Bonnie Plants contest you can go to this link:

My Final Post (Maybe): My Cabbage Feast

Hi everybody!  The time has come to feast!  On the menu is CABBAGE!  We invited my family and friends over for the big event.  From the cabbage my dad made coleslaw and my mom made egg rolls.  
Here is a picture of the coleslaw.


Here is a picture of the egg rolls.


We also had bbq pulled pork sandwiches, watermelon, chips, dip, veggies, my Gramma E's baked beans, pasta salad, and a yummy refreshing limeade.  We also had ice cream and my Grammy's hot fudge.  It was DELICIOUS! 
Here is picture of our meal.


Here are some other pics of my big night.


Thanks to everyone who read my blog. This will be my final post...unless I win the 1,000 dollar scholarship. 

Until (maybe) a next time cabbage fans!

My Cabbage Week 12 (Really 13), "Watiring thi Cabbige"

Late again BUT.... This should be week 12, but it's really week thirteen. The cabbage is still forming inside the center. It has not come out yet. BOO HOO!!! :( I can't wait for it to come out! I wish it would hurry up though. An ALMOST fourth grader doesn't have that much patience. When it gets hot, my cabbage gets kinda wilted. When it does, my 3 year old brother says, "I need to watir thi cabbige." It's so adorable. 
Here is a picture of him "Watiring thi Cabbige". 

 
Here is a picture of my growing cabbage head. It is about the size of a baby watermelon.

Until next time cabbage fans!
