Can I have some car pics too?

I do like the baby squashes, I'll take a pic of the ones I am growing. I am not sure they are 'technically' baby at all, but they can be picked at a small size and are fab. I also have some beets ready to pick and cook too. I like beets, but I never know what to do with them beyond the obvious - any suggestions?

roast them with the skin on over a bed of salt. skin comes off so easy while they're still hot. let them cool. slice them. put a mixure of goat cheese and herbs between layers.

slice them super thin with a mandoline and deep fry to make beet chips

roast the same way as before but chop them up and make a marinated beet salad

pickled beets

I love pickled beets

I like the idea of beet chips and roasted and that plate of beets with goat cheese look fab. There are times when I do wish I had presentation skills

Thanks Amby.

I just did a quick google search and I saw lots of results for beet vinaigrettes

But is there any way to prepare them so they don't taste like dirt?

round cookie cutter will make the beets look perfect and an ice cream scooper will help with the goat cheese

They don't taste like dirt. Something must be wrong with your beets Spooky

I also use an ice cream scoop for cookie dough. everyone is always amazed at my perfectly round cookies
