DON’T MAKE ME
BEET YOU!

I love root vegetables.  Carrots and turnips are yummy, but I simply have never developed a taste for beets.  I don’t hate beets.  I just don’t eat them.  But I must admit I’ve been tempted.  My mother grew up in the hills of Tennessee, and when she was little, her mother used to boil beets in a kettle over an open fire outside in the yard. 

The little devils that they were, my mother and her siblings used to grab them by the greens out of the pot and squeeeeeeeze.  Apparently they shoot out like little red rockets out of their skins.  Beet rockets, funny.  Get to the source of your imagination with this Call.
