With his hat on, he can't be---beet! Sorry, couldn't resist. I think he's fabulous.

Stephen said...

He certainly does look smashing in his hat!

He sounds like one busy dude; certainly not a deadbeet...

Welcome Mr. Robert J. Beet. My advice to you is to steer clear of the bludgeoning red pepper. That dudes got a shovel and looks like she ain't afraid to use it!

AND a Celine Dion fan???

A veggie after my own heart!

Way to go once again Regina on another amazing veggie liberator!

Is he related to Dr. Beat from the Miami Sound Machine Band. Regina you are always an inspiration, and definitely a unique crafter. Maybe Miss. Chiquita Banana will make her debut soon.

Wow! I just surfed in from? can't remember, but WOW! I am a slave to patterns, so it's absolutely inspiring to see someone who "frees her mind" and unleashes veggies with eyeballs and koigu jellyfish on the world. Well done! (And again, wow!)

Wonderful as usual!

Nancy said...

Ahh every good organisation needs a paper pusher! But keep an eye on that guy, he looks like someone that might put the paper in the "red".

I bet that beet's a good dancer too!

Thanks for stopping by my blog! To stiffen the snowflakes, I'm using a product called Stiffy by Plaid that Julie recommended. It looks like watered down white glue. I'm soaking my flakes instead of brushing on the Stiffy like the bottle suggests. Seems more effective. I haven't tried any other products yet. This is my first try at blocking.
I was raised to make due and use what's available therefore things like ironing boards and washing machines are often required for double duty! :D

mmmmm i love beets, especially pickled beets:)

FinnyKnits said...

If he had a black beret he could be a Beet-Nik. Too cheesy? Still, he's hot. Especially with that sly look. Watch out folks!

This has to be my all time favorite beet! Yum :-)
