Ingredients:
1 pound russet potatoes
1 pound turnip(s)

1 cup half and half

1 1/2 tsp thyme (dried is fine but fresh is better)

Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.

Peel and slice the potatoes and turnips into 1/6 inch thick slices. Arrange the slices in a glass 13x9 baking dish; slightly overlapping the slices.

In a medium saucepan, combine the remaining ingredients. Bring to a simmer then remove from heat. Pour the cream mixture over the potato and turnip in the baking dish. Sprinkle with pepper.

Bake for 45 minutes, or until the potatoes and turnips are tender and the top is golden brown.
