other awesome morning sightings in beijing:
1. man doing tai chi every morning when i walk to work. i really want to take a picture, but fear the awkwardness as i walk by him for the next 2.5 months if he catches me.
2. the BIGGEST cucumber i have EVER seen. seriously, this thing was like 10th birthday party watermelon size. the seeds were the size of regular cucumbers. ok that last part was an exaggeration. i also thought i saw yao ming-size green onions , but jen informs me these are indeed just referred to as "leeks."
3. a person on a bike pulling a cart the other day. the cart was only partially covered. and inside were a bunch of red, bleeding carcasses. probably headed to my cafeteria for lunch. i avoided the meat that day, opting for the stuffed veggie roll, egg drop soup, and corn.

I embarrassed myself laughing out loud at this picture in my office. I am now calling over everyone within earshot to come look...
Note: the chinese gov't did not sensor the above comment. I did due to horribly bad proofreading.
glad I could hook you up with the identification of bizarre vegetables. I can't wait for thanksgiving 2007: we'll stuff the tofurkey with some crazy stuff.
the chinese quaker oats guy is amazing.
