four days after 9-11...and our flights to Europe were canceled....so we just looked for anything flying out of NOLA and BOOM - it was Buffalo ! But it ended up to be a great trip. Drove up to Niagara Falls, Niagara on the Lakes, to Toronto, and then over to Little Inn in Bayfield ON. Small world, since we now live in Texas. How'd you get your Texan husband to move. Been trying that for years. didn't know it was possible to get a Texan to leave. LOL

Back to beets - love them - especially borscht. Also like to slice them super thin and steam w/goat cheese, arugula, and a couple seared scallops.

BTW, it was super fun to hit local Canadian pubs since we were there after 9-11. People booed and hissed Bush when he appeared on TV. Everyone was mad because Bush sent inbound flights to Canada. They were like "Thanks a lot ! " Young teens all over Toronto begging for money to build bomb shelters.
