Beets

I have a beet problem.
I love beets SO MUCH.
People think I'm crazy, and say they taste like dirt, but that's why I love them!
Because they taste like dirt in a GOOD way.
I also think beets are pretty.
So that's why I received this textile as a gift from my mom.
I got these two vintage pieces this last weekend at the Antique Mall nearby.
The pea one is an old seed box. This one is a beet can label.
Pretty awesome!
This is a print from Bread and Puppet. My mom and dad went to see them perform and, knowing I was jealous, sent me this poster. It's now on my dorm wall. Pretty snazzy.
In conclusion, please try beets. They are delicious. They are especially good with a medley of root veggies like carrots and potatoes. Golden beets are amazing! All you have to do is put some oil on them and throw them in the oven at 350-400ish for about an hour.
BEET THE SYSTEM!

  1. P.S. It helps to cut them into uniform chunks, and add chopped fresh rosemary.....
