A cross section of a small beetroot bulb backlit with torch.
Being of Eastern European heritage this was a no brainer. Raw Beetroots undoubtedly are the most beautiful and striking in colour of all vegetables.
This was one of the smaller bulbs I could find. The overall max width of frame here is 6cm.
Happy Macro Monday! 😊
One day last week, my wife was manically wrangling fabric and thread and mysterious stuff like, making clothes for the grandkids apparently, I thought it wise to embark on a noble quest — to find the perfect hamburger near a beach. With vigilance and a great sense of responsibility, I acquired a hamburger with the works: beetroot, pineapple, bacon, egg... all the important food groups, from a surf club cafe at Soldiers Beach. I washed it down with a chocolate milkshake while watching whales carve their way through the sea with effortless grace. Between Jul-Nov more than 25,000 Humpback whales travel the “humpback highway” down the east coast of Australia to their feeding grounds in Antarctica. They probably take this scenic route because I suspect hamburgers may be a bit hard to come by down there!
But let’s address the most important matter here: pineapple. I reckon there are two kinds of people in the world — those who embrace the sweet, tangy joy of pineapple on burgers and pizzas and those who are tragically misguided. I, naturally, stand proudly with Team Pineapple. Pineapple tastes like summer to me 🍍🍔 🍕 ☀️ 🍹 Extra on my pizza. Always.
Which team are you on? 😉

Pretty beetroot bow-tie pasta. I can never resist buying pasta in different shapes and colours - I now have a large selection taking up space in two of my kitchen cupboards. Luckily some does get eaten!
