Eat Your Vegetables
snip

While unearthing garden beets this fall, I looked upon nature’s indifference to color, shape, and size. The tall yellow corn, the orange carrots, the beige cantaloupe, and the Marion cane-berries are an appetizing rainbow in the black sandy soil. The marvel of nutritional harmony that vegetables provide is a uniqueness of genetic genomes. The intricacies of nature only equal the complications of the human gene.

The beet was encased in a deep serious red skin. Its fibrous core selflessly produces calcium, vitamin C, and anti-oxidants for human consumption. The building block of man’s existence is a cornucopia of fruits and vegetables. This garden of life has been the magic used by shamans, necromancers, brujerias, or sorcerers. Our great-grandmothers still use these natural recipes for fighting colds, healing muscles, and stopping headaches.
