Yes. No parsnips in the bible. God’s heavenly parenting style is more like the one every good parent adopts: “Eat your greens!!”

Genesis 1:30: “And to all the beasts of the earth …I give every green plant for food.”

Or it could just be that it was a sense of humour and imagination, or that when you are building with bamboo and wood there’s a limited number of architectural options.
And my souddies haven’t arrived at the shop yet: our season starts ater thn yours.
