Nancy, this makes me smile. I thought of that same poem, or at least the first line, as soon as I saw the theme. Your photo works perfectly.

Thanks, Janet! It’s an old photo. My niece is now 23 and about to get married. How time flies.
So true!! I love this one!
Thanks!
Your welcome!
Lovely photo, Nancy. Those rhymes really brought back memories, but I never heard the turnip one. 🙂
I hadn’t either, mostly just the first line. 🙂 Thanks, Sylvia!
Nice shot for this challenge Nancy.
Thanks, Stefano.
I agree with others. This slightly old fashioned, charming image fits well wityh that old traditional saying.
Thanks, Margaret!
