ReplyDeleteIt is yummy! It's a shame I can't send you some!
ReplyDeleteLooks delish, a great way to use up a glut of beetroot.
ReplyDeleteI wish we had a glut lol! That was the first lot we'd harvested, but at least we can use it through the winter months :D
ReplyDeleteYum Sue. YUM :)
ReplyDeleteI wanted to thank you for the comment you put on my blog the other day - the pearls of wisdom. In particular the one that said: When everything is coming your way, you're in the wrong lane.'
That really resonated with me. I was all, OMG that is so exactly how I feel. So dumped kids with parents, drove down to Picton with hubs and had a long chat about What To Do. It was a good talk. Air was cleared and things were sorted out. The main upshot was I've put Uni off for a year (something Im feeling good about) and hubs is sitting down and sorting out what he really wants in a job.
So, you never know, do you, how one little comment can make people think. :)
Thanks again.
Oh wow Caitlyn, glad it helped! Good job I didn't send you this one: I couldn't repair your brakes, so I made your horn louder. ;) Good luck with everything.

Haha I realised that after I had posted, but it will do 3 x 300ml, then jars are smaller than that ;-D
ReplyDeletePlum wine is good. I will be posting about that soon, promise.
Sue has told me about you, must go have a peek at your blog :D
This looks wonderful! I can't wait to try it, but beets won't be on till September in our corner of the world...
