mmmmmmm....beets.
There's something I haven't had in a while (wait....I think I have a jar of them in the pantry!).
My mother used to make wonderful borscht (beet soup). We'd put sour cream in it and it was always a riot to be eating "pink soup" - but wow! Was it good.

Oh yeah, I forgot borscht, too! Guess I like beets more than I thought I did...

I don't care for beets.
My mother used to make pickled eggs with beets. The smell of them made me gag.

As a kid, I LIKED beets.
As an adult, even the smell makes me gag sometimes.
My dad loves Harvard beets but I swear that man would eat anything if you put enough sugar on it. We go through 5 lbs (of sugar) a week, and it's ALL HIM.By charity, goodness, restraint, and self-control men and woman alike can store up a well-hidden treasure -- a treasure which cannot be given to others and which robbers cannot steal. A wise person should do good. That is the treasure that cannot be lost.
