beets

My garden is a soggy mess. Flower stalks have fallen over- especially the borage. Potato foliage appears to be dying of virus or some kind of bacterial wilt, ugh. On the other hand, carrots and lemon balm look fantastic. The sink bin provided a ton of mosquito wigglers for my fishes. And I pulled a few young beets.

The greens looked so good, I tried sauteeing them with garlic and cooking into a pasta dish in lieu of swiss chard. Flavor was not quite right. I ought to look up a recipe next time.

The beetroots themselves, simply boiled, tasted very nice! Golden beets were new for me this year.
