The red juice from the beets didn't last long on my hands. You're right. It is a gorgeous color!<br /><br />Ginny - the canoe didn't overturn. It's just half-full of water. The photo is a sunken canoe plus reflection in the very still water. Can't even blame a storm for her disaster!<br /><br />Mimi - the pirate boat is great for the kids because the water can be cold for them to swim, I guess. It also gets very deep, very fast about 4 ft from the beach.<br /><br />Jeannette - Good idea to slice the beets. We didn't bring all the recipes though and grated beets, carrots were part of a very tasty salad. <br />Homemade pizzas were a staple when my kids were growing up. Grandkids seems to like them, too.Stephanie Vhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03206167025245206754noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3839575896417104888.post-18459212852803142222010-07-30T02:36:50.295-07:002010-07-30T02:36:50.295-07:00That field with daisies is a dream!

All your photos are so interesting when together with your words.<br />The canoe on the lake is my favourite too, though I love the one of the pirate boat too- sounds like a great idea.<br />You certainly were organised, bringing frozen homemade pizza dough!Mimihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08100985140335023467noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3839575896417104888.post-53887687965295627212010-07-29T11:36:56.512-07:002010-07-29T11:36:56.512-07:00What a wonderful post!!

Where did the pirate ship come from? That's a special picture, as well. Your cabin looks very nice, I'm probably enjoying your vacation almost as much as you did!Ginny Hartzlerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09329131153403895625noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3839575896417104888.post-4108945377253568482010-07-29T10:38:41.298-07:002010-07-29T10:38:41.298-07:00It sounds like you all had an excellent time.

I'm glad she made it out of the lake in one piece and hope her bruises have healed.<br /><br />Where are your gloves in the beet photo?<br /><br />A little part of me wants to make a dye from beets. I love the color!Rudeehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17889298704039071473noreply@blogger.com
