The weather has finally improved and I'm now in full catch-up mode. Not surprisingly, I'm already a bit achy from the past couple of days of bed prep and seeding. But it's a good kind of ache, so I'm not complaining 😁
At this point, the peas, turnips and beets are in. Say what??? Did I just say beets? If you've hung around my blog for a while, you know that I am a self-proclaimed beet hater - or, since I prefer not using the word hate when it comes to vegetables, let's just say that I dislike them. A lot.
So being a beet "disliker", why do I have them in my garden this year? Well, because I received a few packets of beet seeds from Botanical Interests, of course! Can't resist free seeds, even if they are for beets. It's also Year of the Beet so I consider it perfect timing for giving beets a chance to win me over.

They look so pretty - I really hope my taste buds agree |
