A whimsical sketch in crayon, oil pastels and charcoal; lying on a brightly designed kerchief lining a basket are pea pods, cucumbers, a turnip, and a large potato; the top pea-pod is open showing two anthropomorphic peas happy in their pod, stacked upright next to them are three anthropomorphic gerkins, they are cool cukes, the turnip retains the greens, and he's obviously a country bumpkin, and the potato is already lounging just as if it was on a couch; this playful sketch is full of whimsey and fun, emphasizing the silly metaphors illustated.
For those of you who don't recognized the idioms:
Happy as two peas in a pod
Cool as a cucumber
Couch potato
Just fell off the turnip truck - meaning naive, unworldly, or easily fooled. It implies a person is a "country bumpkin" who just arrived in the big city and is unfamiliar with how things work.
