    Turnips do you good. :D

    Still, Ingvarsson and Gaellstedt - who both walk without any assistance and do all their daily chores themselves - did their best to answer some of the questions they've almost grown tired of by now. No, they repeated time and again, they do not really have a secret formula for long life.

    "We like to joke and say it's because we lived only on turnip back in 1914," Gaellstedt said. "That's all we had to eat during the world war. The first one, that is."

    They have a more normal diet now, they said, but that hasn't stopped them from keeping their health. Aside from when they gave birth - they each had one child - Gaellstedt is the only one who has ever been hospitalized. She broke her thigh bone two years ago, but recovered quickly, she said.

    :lol: I got sent this story just this morning. It really sums up what Gnomes have been saying for years. You will go far with a good turnip by your side, and even further with a good turnip in your belly. :lol:

    All three of you turnip lovers must have lost your sense of smell as well as taste! :Bleh:

    Give me Mt. Dew, and I'll live as long as I wish. :rolleyes: :rolling:

    I officially declare Takara a gnome (if it hasn't already been done that is...)
