Who Am I

My crispy red self
With my pronounced veins
My lacy end caps
Decorating gardens 
Delighting bunnies
I can be used in floral decorations
Or eaten in a tasty salad
I calmly sit
Being all that and more
Reveling in my wholeness
Prancing only in my mind










Answer:

I am decorative cabbage

'pronounced veins' -- an (intended?) treasure trove of ambiguity lies therein. Still haven't read past the second line. Still contemplating the myriad meanings. (OK. I admit I've looked down all the way to 'red cabbage.') ~ He of pronounced veins in the Windy City

I like it also. But it sure looks pretty as a potted plant too!

I'm thinking of a radish but am probably wrong. BTW, Pinocchio was a wooden puppet, not the puppet carver master. Check it out on Google. / M
