No cooking for me. I am being feted.... albeit in a small way. My wife
is making huge concessions to me. She made a rhubarb coffee cake for
brunch. There are nly a few things she does not like to eat. One is
rhubarb. The other is beets. I have don't mind beets at all. I am not
crazy enough about them to really miss them, but that it the one
standard food item that she absolutely hates. A couple years ago we
discovered how parsnips, IMO nasty tasting when boiled, are absolutely
delicious when roasted. I have been trying to get her to try roasted
beets. So.... tonight she is roasting beets. I will probably like them.
I am wondering if having them roasted will make them palatable to her.
