How Vegetables Behave at 100 Below Zero

Here at the South Pole, we keep our vegetables on the outdoor deck.  This is the famous Asian Mix, a combination of once-living flora that has by now spent most of life in temperatures between 20 and 100 below zero Farenheit.  Currently close to 100 below.  When these greens fall on the ground, they shatter like glass...and straight out of the bag they stick together in freeform sculpture like the one seen here.

And, for your information, we are tough enough characters that we go out there to rescue the vegies wearing only our cotton chef's whites.  And leather gloves.  Brisk!

I really admire your way of learning the world. I do hope you are able to write a book about this amazing adventure.
