Overreaction?

My garden is going full tilt right now.

Garden?

Yes, garden.  In Central Texas, we can garden almost all year long.  Our off season is actually July-September because it's too stinking hot to grow anything but okra.

Anyway, I have a lovely bunch of beets that is ready to pull.  Last night I pulled up six or seven and oven roasted them.  When you wrap them in foil, then bake them, the skins slip right off.  I love roasted beets.  And pickled beets.  And kale with beets.

You get the picture, right?

I love beets.

So you would think I knew better today than to freak out when I went to the bathroom and determined that I was now dying from colon cancer.

Yep, red.  Very, very red.  It passes, unlike colon cancer.

Oh gosh, isn't it amazing how fast we can forget about something that happened just a little while earlier and then jump to all the wrong conclusions?!
