Izzle! Izzle pfaff!

Today is the wife's birthday, so I will of course be taking her out for a lovely meal at the Insanely Fucking Great Tapas Joint, where we will, I hope, consume beets. I'm a sucker for their beets. I'm also reasonably sure that I've never typed that sentence before, but I'm kind of enchanted with it: I encourage whatever American beet concerns might exist out there to pick it up and use it as a really terrible advertising campaign:

He's a sucker for our beets! Paid for by the US Beet Council.

Or maybe just one of these:

Fuck you, dude! Eat beets.
Beets: Pee red in a good way.
We've! Got! Folate!
Sexier than cabbage.
Now with fewer aphids!
Beets: Because You've Just Given Up.

No charge, boys! Anyway, I'm sure glad I could marginalize my lovely wife's birthday by jabbering idiotically about root vegetables, because I know she'll read it later and think, "What a swell husband! His sad babbling touches my heart!" And then she'll attack me with a pulaski.

Married life is great, but occasionally terrifying. There's only one thing to do: go get some tasty damn beets.

[backspace][backspace][backspace] You really should put a preview button on here.

Hmm... you have one. That goddamned solar flare!

Beets: 4 out of 5 children prefer them over contracting amoebic dysentery.

Beets. They taste like dirt.

But in a good way.

the fuck is a pulaski?

I suppose if she attacked you with a Crusher, we'd be asking: "Bev or Wesley?", so it's just as well she uses a pulaski.
