My heart skippped a beat to find a blogger who lives in the Loire valley. My favorite part of France. I love beets and don't mind cooking them whether boiling or roasting. I put them in as soon as I get home from the grocer. My husband detests them but I salt,pepper and a liitle vinegar and keep them in the fridge in a sealed jar. I spoon a few on my salad with some crumbled blue cheese and vinegrette yum yum.<BR/><BR/>Now I have to make more time to read another blog as I am adding yours to my favorites!!

My sister (whose name is Elizabeth) goes by <I>Betsy</I> with us, but <I>Betty</I> with her husband, and her last name starts with <I>C.</I>, so every time I see a post by "Betty C." I think of my sister (who I think occasionally reads your blog, Ken).<BR/><BR/>I, too, am a beet convert after eating them in France in a nice salad. It's so much more convenient to buy them already freshly-cooked... here, you only get them pickled on the salad bar, or raw. I tried cooking them once in the pressure cooker after I came back from France, but it was too messy.<BR/><BR/>JudySeine Judeet (Judith)https://www.blogger.com/profile/07407353544376132484noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18071407.post-30988968271756940302008-12-20T15:10:00.000+01:002008-12-20T15:10:00.000+01:00i'm with barack....don't like em...maybe i've just...i'm with barack....don't like em...maybe i've just never had them prepared correctlyAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18071407.post-53326813750868094962008-12-20T13:01:00.000+01:002008-12-20T13:01:00.000+01:00I love beets, too.
