…and I smiled at the surprise!!!

I hadn’t had time to properly clean and prepare the beets from the garden yesterday, so they were “vased” and refrigerated for posterity.  Yes, I put them there.  I was still surprised.  What is your point?

Do I like beets?  Not especially, actually, but I had some seeds (you can grow 9 at a time in a 1-foot square) and you can eat the greens in a salad and roast the root with garlic and olive oil – or just juice the whole, crazy pile with some oranges (yum).  And there are health merits.

At the very least, opening the fridge this morning made me happy.  :)
