Mmmm...
Steamed beet greens and fresh carrots...
Some idjit had "harvested" the carrots in the garden in back of the apartments. But they'd just grabbed handfuls of the tops and pulled stuff out of the (quite wet) soil. That left a lot of stuff still in the ground as the tops had pulled off. Plus, they'd left a bunch of really small carrots in the pile of carrot tops they'd left sitting to one. side.
There were also a few beets that'd gotten pulled out by accident (things are planted *way* too close together) and had been left.
I'd found out that beet greens were wondderful after getting a few for Fay to try (she thought she'd like them, but was wromg. Me, I loathe them).
Since one of my friends in the building *loves* beets, this works out ok, I hadded some betts to the haul and went back to prepare my wonderful repast. :-)
