Hi Lylah,
My friend Jennifer and I met you and your husband at the home tour in North Scottsdale a few weeks ago. We visited for quite a while in the front before the tour started. I am also appreciative of the wonderful community of people who shar…
I sure like using the bottled fish emulsion and mixing with water. I guess it's not the most economical but mine sure lasts a long time plus you can use it with flowers, veges and just about everything.
I generally don't fertilize veges as when pre…
Thanks Alice. This looks very interesting. It seems like it's the same concept as making pickles and other fermented veges. I think I'm going to try it!
I was just having fun in the post title. So many people do not like beets so I thought it would be fun to see who does. Easy to grow in the fall and winter season out here not to mention being delicious!
I adore beets. Freshly cooked and sprinkled with rice Vinegar.MMMM MMMM Good. Did not know there was a beet haters society out there. I have not grown them yet.
Here's the recipe from NT:
12. med. beets
seeds from 2 cardamom pods
1 T. sea salt
4 T whey or additional T. sea salt (I don't use whey in ferments)
1 C. filtered water
Prick beets in several places, bake on cookie sheet at 300 for 3 hours or until…
I hope you can find one. At our Thanksgiving table we have the Tofurky roast for the non meat eaters. You can find it at Whole Foods, Sprouts or Sunflower.

WOW! I would like to see the ant that did that kind of damage. He would probably rear up and take me on. I'd have to run for my life.
Nice garden. Great pics. Keep up the good work.
Something is getting to my lettuce this year. As soon as it pops…
Sounds yummy! Today I roasted them with some hard winter squash and carrots. Mixed diced ginger with my olive oil. Salt and pepper, a super hot oven and you're good to do. They turned out delicious.
I like the idea of garlic as well. Got to try tha…
I would love to see your beet area! You must have a lot during harvest time. :-)
Do you ever have a problem with giving them away? I find that many people turn up their nose are are not eager recipients of a gift of beets. LOL!
We live in Mesa and have a tiny little yard that has raised beds where I grow both winter and summer vegetables. I love flowers, cooking and everything outdoors.
Lylah - likewise to you and Michael - I feel connected through our tweets and on this site - one day we will meet in a class! Another hands-on Herb Planting class is coming in 2010!
Happy holidays and a peace-filled new year to all.
