This week we have a veg bag from Community Roots full of delicious fresh veg including beetroot which we are not fond of! They are now boiling in preparation for being made into Chocolate Beetroot Cake, recipe here.
I’ve made pesto with the wonderful Basil leaves that were in the bag.
I’m joining in a local campaign #calltoarts and, with other people in Cornwall, I’m urging my MP and the UK Government to take immediate, decisive action to end the atrocity in Palestine. We have been asked to draw, paint, sing, sculpt – whatever we can and to share the image far and wide and to tag our MPs. #perranmoon I’ve chosen one of my angels in three of the colours of the Palestinian.

I too was never a fan as it wax always served cold and usually pickled.
Have you tried roasting beetroot?
Absolutely delicious.
We serve it( home grown, of course) with roast potato, carrots etc.

I have and I liked it but Mr S, having been brought up with pickled slices, can’t get past that. He loves the cake! 🙂
