The Devil's Vegetable

The Devil's Vegetable poll:


[Poll #1416966][Poll #1416966]

In other news, I saw a male green woodpecker this morning, in the middle of an open field. He was industrously examining the fence posts. I think he must have flown in from the woods across the Tamar.

Minor grumble: my new, super-permeable contact lenses seem to be on slow focus. I can see things in a lot of detail, but changing focus on my eyes seems to take ages!

edit: dear me, the rich text editor gets its pants severely twisted once it comes to polls. Back to HTML editor...

Beetroot.

Ooooh, I could eat beetroot all day. Well, almost all day. Mmmmm. I had half a jar of pickled beetroot for lunch today. Now all my insides are bright purple. Well, so I imagine. I've not opened them up to look.

This week's veg box included a kohl rabi that was such a deep purple I almost mistook it for a stray beetroot.

I can't even sit at a table with it. The only good use I have heard of for beetroot is planting it next to a daffodil, so you get a purple daffodil.
