Ginny, are you saying that Red Beets lay eggs? Red Beet Eggs? I never
ate one, so I cannot answer your question.

<lol> I often keep the beet liquid from canned beets to make pickled
hard boiled eggs. Makes them a nice pink color.

I'm not a beet fan, but dad is. :-)

Oh, darn, I wanted to see those little eggs and the newly born Red Beet
Babies.

How does that affect the taste of the hard boiled eggs? If you crack
the shell once they are boiled and put them back into the red liquid, do
you get pink marbled eggs, once you peel them?

LOL... I was wondering what "red beet eggs" looked like. It's early this
morning and I almost added it to my shopping list. My brain doesn't
engage until 10am.

Red Beet eggs are boiled, peeled eggs added to the pickling juice of picked
beets, sometimes with a few beets and onions left in the brine.
Eggs left this way for a few days (in the fridge of course) develop into a
lovely magenta color hence the term 'red beet eggs'. Sometimes you can find
them on a salad bar. Will eat beets, but love the eggs.

Margaret!!!! I can see the little teeny tiny evil streak peeping out! You
wanted to order a dozen layers and have them delivered to Barb didn't
you!!!! I can see it now, a box of peeping, chirping beets left on the
doorstep. Barb recoiling in horror, then they actually start laying beet
eggs, in her yard, on the porch............she sweeps them out with a broom
but they keep popping back up.......One day they are sitting on her canning
supplies with pitiful looks cheeping the 'eat me' 'eat me' chirp that a
spawn from a beet egg peeps. She has enough, and waves her broom in the
air calling you not so nice names.

Great idea! That's different - I must try that. <G>

Ginny, It is done! I ordered two bunches of Red Beets, the best Layers
available in my market and I will somehow let them loose in Barbara's
garden. I haven't resolved the logistics involved, but with your help,
it should be a minor hurdle and we should be able to do it.

As far as someone calling someone else not so nice names, what makes you
so sure you are immune to Barbara's ire? For example, I am quoting her
now: > You people are sick!

Who do you think she meant? Huh?

I've read about doing that. :-)
Green tea is also another good egg "stain".

As for it affecting the taste, only very mildly.

I don't know what a red beet egg is but I am still suddering. Beets
must be useful for something. It's just that they are not food.

They provide the base for the edible part.
The greens. ;-)

It makes me SO mad that the grocery stores no longer carry beets with
their tops intact! The only time I get beet greens now is if I get lucky
at the farmers market. ;-(
