i had a vegetable photo shoot to tackle yesterday for a book cover i am working on for a chicago author. i bought an armful of vegetables for the shoot including one of my favorite photogenic vegetables, beets. i took this photo of tula mirth holding the beets shortly before i quartered and roasted them. yum!

Well now, you can mark me down as a serious subscriber. the slow life was fast becoming one of my favorite blogs and now I know it for certain, what a lovely pic! beets are jewels and I collect their recipes like an aging socialite collects shiny rocks.
