You want to know how I get my kids to eat beets?
I tell them they are pirate hearts'...
what can I tell you I am raising a twisted bunch of kids...
They fight for them now.
Hmmm, personally I think they are just like candy, of course fresh is better. When I am feeling better, I will grab a couple of bunches from the farm stand and we will enjoy fresh pirate hearts'!
I wonder if they taste different than the canned variety?
....why are you eating the hearts of my people...?
ReplyDelete-pirate jacky.
Argggggggh, Matey! hee hee....
ReplyDeleteFresh beets are the best, Kimmie, so do pick some up if you are still able to get them from a farm market stand. I grew up eating canned pickled beets from the garden which is what I continue to do each year from my garden. Mmmmmmm!

We had canned growing up. I could successfully gag down one.
ReplyDeleteThat's hilarious. My mom should have used that tactic on me...I don't like beets either.
ReplyDeleteLOL - that is just too funny!
ReplyDeleteMy kids looooove beetroot - which is great! When I grew my own ( my last few batches all died under the HOT sun here) I used to pickle them using my granny's recipe - it is delicious!
oh my! I think my kids would run screaming!
ReplyDeleteHow creative though. Glad it works for your kids. :)
I cannot believer they sell them in tins saying pirate hearts!! So funny!! My kids love tinned beetroot too. Fresh does taste different, not as salty, more like carrot I guess, if you grate it. I used to buy fresh and grate it into salads. Oh, the things I USED to do when I only had 1 child!! Must buy some fresh again. :)
ReplyDeleteOh Saminda;
ReplyDeleteI created the tin of beets to say *Pirate Hearts'*
The magic of photo editing!

I guess I never knew people ate beets because they liked them. I can't say I'm tempted to try them yet, but someday, maybe...
ReplyDeleteHi! You don't know me, but I have 4 kiddoes adopted from Ethiopia. I was reading another blog (Shonna) and saw that you were looking for little snaps for your daughter's hair? There is a lady who sells them online to fund her adoption. The site is www.snapaholics.com
ReplyDeleteThe prices are very reasonable.
Hope that helps!
