beet it

French chef Jacques Pépin is a living legend, with decades of cooking excellence to his credit, a long-running PBS series and numerous acclaimed cookbooks.  And now he has an exclusive collection at Sur La Table, including this colorful, whimsical, hand-crafted and hand-painted Beet Bowl and accompanying serving plate.  Very much love them both, and speaking of beets, I also love Chef Pépin's recipe for chilled Vegetarian Borscht (click for link) which might be served up nicely at this time of year.
