To beet or not to beet...

yes, corny I know but, seriously, let me give you some simple warnings if you are considering feeding your toddler beets (who really considers feeding their toddlers beets, except maybe people in the Ukraine who make Borscht stew?? I don't know, but just in case).
1) undress the child, or dress them in fuschia
2) undress yourself, or dress in fushia, or use an apron that you do not care about
3) feed at dinner time, before bath time - not a good idea for breakfast
4) clean up with paper towels
5) clean up immediately
Okay that's my 2 cents on beets. As a first time mom and a picky eater myself, I am trying to introduce my kids to lots of flavors. I'd call this a success - but next time it will be before bathtime, not in our new shirt (even if it was only $5).

Too cute! I'm impressed that you're feeding them all of that. :)

Beets? What did those poor kids do?!
Just kidding!
It’s really cool that you’re feeding them all of that different stuff. And even cooler that they like it!

Never would have thought that beets would be good- but apparently Price & Charis liked them! ;-) They're getting so big!!
