The Beet Goes On
Rolled out of bed, put on yesterday’s clothes–AKA “roll and go” (TMI for sure) and headed to the farmer’s market.
Scored cucumbers, tomatoes & green peppers. Came home and pickled 6 more pints of beets. The rest were cooked (with orange sauce) for immediate consumption or freezer. 
Made more unprocessed/refrigerator dill pickles. Made gazpacho for tomorrow. Ditto for corn/black bean salad. Cleaned up kitchen to make garlic shrimp risotto to go with the beets in orange sauce. Chocolate zucchini cake for dessert. Now the kitchen needs cleaning again. sigh.
