Boy am I in a silly mood today, must be all this raw food and no processed sugar. O.k. since everyone here keeps talking about red beets I went and bought some. I was only going to buy one little bunch, but as I walked away to get something else and walked back again to my basket another little bunch fell on the floor right in front of me screaming 'eat me' 'eat me too'. Imagine the looks on everyone's faces, a screaming beet, we almost made the 6:00 news. So I happily rescued this bunch and stuffed them in my basket. Now I am eating a scrumptious tomatoe/beet salad. My new fave thing are beets because of this board. Question: These organic beets came with huge long leaves. Can I do something with these?

You folks are making me salivate! I made a great salad yesterday with fresh beets, fresh tomatoes and fresh carrots and fresh red lettuce with some really fresh olive oil and some fresh spices. Yummy!
