There a beautiful creature was created. The Turnip reminds me of the old customs that we used to have in German-speaking countries. When we were kids we used to carve Turnips at school. They had ugly faces and grimaces. They cut off the lower pointed part and hollowed them out. Finally the pointed root part came on top. Looked wonderful. Our Turnip variety was inside nice yellow and we left the rest of the earth on the outside. So she got a nice creepy look. Unfortunately, the custom is disappearing more and more and the turnip has been replaced by pumpkins. If you want to know more about it, look under the german word
RÜBENGEISTER.
That's what we call these lanterns.
Thanks for sharing that!
