Zico abd Beets
I just tried "Zico: America's new sports drink." Coconut milk harvested at its peak potassium content and sold in spiffy containers. I am a sucker for interesting things to drink, especially in neat packaging. It was quite nice mixed with some rum and lime juice, and even drinkable on its own. Yum.

Also tried some fresh beet and carrot juice- it was ok, but the beets didn't add much but a garish color. Hermes was entertaining, because he loves carrots, but HATES the juicer, so was alternating between barking at the juicer and begging for carrots. Our kitchen shows the signs of our recent glut in beets. Our cutting boards and plastic spoons have that beet tinge. Tonight for dinner we are having Southern-style beet greens. Inexplicably, as soon as I saw the recipe called for "thick-cut bacon" I wanted to try it. Only southerners make veggies so unhealthy...

I have discovered I really like roasted baby beets. (If they are too big they don't roast quite as nicely)
