During the Fall Good Food Box allotment, I received not one, but two large turnips (one was a bonus from a friend’s food box).
As I could not possibly absorb both turnips into the household food cycle, I gave it to an artist with the challenge to do something creative (in addition to eating it).
Recently, during an open studio show where I got to see the fruits of her labour, I was rewarded with two creative outputs from the turnip challenge; she'd made cards from a turnip print, and, from the turnip top, she got a lovely plant to add some green to her studio this spring.

hmmm....didn't ever think of doing that with a turnip! Pineapple yes, turnip, no. Very pretty.
