В Англии health visitors рекомендуют давать детям репу в качестве первого прикорма. Готовить её просто: 20 минут в пароварке и размять вилкой. Но, как известно, репка – это не только ценный продукт, но и объект народного творчества.
С детства знакомая сказка, с небольшими отличиями:
It was time to pull up the enormous turnip.
“Pls come & help me,” the old man said to his wife.
The old man & his wife pulled & pulled.
But the enormous turnip would not move!
A little boy walked by. “Pls help us!” said the man & his wife.
The man & his wife & the little boy pulled & pulled.
But the enormous turnip would not move.
A friendly dog was watching. “Pls help!” said the little boy.
The man & his wife, the boy & the friendly dog pulled & pulled.
But the enormous turnip still would not move!
