Travel Bunny As Peter Rabbit

We couldn’t resist this little nod to Beatrix Potter when we saw these cabbages in the field on our drive home from Farm Squared this weekend.

Cabbage patch bunny.

Ironically, when I was a child I always associated strongly with Peter (the bad bunny) but it turns out that we are of Clan MacGregor (a ways back). Always made me a little pissed at my mean and stingy relative who couldn’t spare a extra carrot for a hungry bunny.

Later in life, my perspective shifted a bit after having to repeatedly protect our summer crop of vegetable from the rogue bunnies.  One loose rabbit can do serious damage to a vegetable garden in short order.

But there is still a warm spot in my heart for Peter Rabbit.
