Re: New Year - New Beginnings
I also wanted to say to KOS....
I think you should write a memoir. Or perhaps a biography of your parents / grandparents. If the little tidbits we hear from you are any indication, I think you and maybe moreso they have led a very interesting life. And it would be something special for your children and grandchildren - if no one else.
I suspect gabriele has quite a story to tell, too!! Moving 1/2 way around the world, etc.
me three.....Kos you should write a memoir

Re: New Year - New Beginnings
It seems proper to simply let best wishes for April and our niece be the content of the day.
But I did want to respond to gabriele about the beets! lol
Yes, they are beetroots that we are talking about. Simply called beets here in the US. I like them cooked and buttered. I like them pickled (sweet and with some cloves) and this summer I learned to make a complicated but delicious borscht because I had bought a few beets at the farmers market.
And they are SUPER good for you.
View: I was going to mention what you did that what we call beets are called beetroot in much of the rest of at least the western world. I think we Americans are in the minority on the abbreviated name because at least in England, they are call beetroot....also in Australia and perhaps in all of western Europe?
I'm with you also on the ways to eat them....we eat them any way they come! I also cook the greens with the sliced beets when I steam them. Interesting info in the link. Thanks for that! We shall eat them even more often!
Actually organic beets are one of the least expensive organic vegetables available here in CA. Could it be because they aren't that popular?! LOL Most people I know say they don't like them. Probably many haven't even tried them!
Enough about beets!!
I like them roasted too

Hmmmm. Who do we want to see on next season's DWTS? Has anyone run across any rumors?
I do know who I'd like to see promoted to Pro from the troupe. If they need 6 female and 6 male, I think Jenna should join Lindsay, Witney, Peta, Sharna....there will be NO Allison this season (baby!)... so who else?
The guys - I think there are some real questions as to whether Derek, and even Mark will be part of it. Is Tony game for another season? Did I hear that he has a contract for 2 more seasons? Artem probably. But I have my doubts about Keo.
What do you guys think?
