"From the cabbage patch" Please Note: if you use this you will have a lot
of explaining to do. Today's youngsters are so alienated from the basics
of agricultural production that you will have to describe:
a. What a cabbage is in its uncooked, unfrozen, unpicked form
b. The meaning of the word "patch" to refer to a small plot of land
devoted to a single crop
c. The meaning of the word "crop"
d. How "land" is used to raise "crops"
e. How a child might be reasonably protected and hidden by the outer
leaves of a head of cabbage
f. Who "Topsy" was (if you are silly enough to add, "like Topsy" at the
end of "from a cabbage patch"
