First beetroot
Just wanted to share my first ever "grown by moi" beetroot. I put it plus the tops into my fruit juice mix this morning. Yum yum. I will have to get into all the veggies as they mature as I see that there are some other "creatures" finding my good stuff. XLeonie

Soooo tired - had a really big week which ended in the Garden Party. It was fantastic and we raised lots of $$$$$ for BCNA. I know that everyone is already lining up for next year. Lovely setting at our home and lovely things to eat and drink - thanks to my sister's wonderful help and also some of my lovely friends. Can't wait to add up the $$ but have a Support Group meeting tomorrow and I need to catch up the housekeeping (ironing especially) before I take my hubby away for our 5th wedding anniversary surprise this weekend and then of course NEXT WEEK in Sydney!!!!!. Will post pics etc in the next couple of days. XLeonie
Must pick some more tomorrow - maybe not - I will then have more bragging rights when I have all of my 50 plus friends over for our Girls Afternoon Tea for a BCNA fundraiser on Sunday. XLeonie

Hi Helen, When I do baked beetroot, I just cut the stalks down to about 20cm then throw the whole lot into the oven. Just need to peel off skin when done. I love it. XLeonie
