corner view ≈ before and after

there are handsful of before and after in our home renovation project, but circumstances stop me to go the full monty on those. instead i remember fondly the garden late winter, the growing seedlings, the harvesting and later the preparing of the homebred red beet. it was a straight joy to do so, thank you, garden! jane's corner view, francesca's hosting.

  6. How wonderful you have beets in your own garden! I can't grow anything here in our clay soil so depend on large containers - mainly for tomatoes and basil. But beets...yum!

  14. all black thumbs here, so it seems a miracle to me when i see homegrown vegetables.
    i remember how i hated beetroot as a child - because the only way i ever got it on my plate was the cooked, pickled in vinegar variety. we call it "red beet" and it was a synonym for horror in kindergarten.

    now i roast the vegetable and it is super-yum.

    what is your recipe?
