"Beets I can manage." She had figured out how to use them pretty quickly with how much she found herself with. "I have a really lovely chocolate beet cake recipe. Although you might have to find some courage and try the butternut squash pie I brought." Lavender wasn't sure how good it was going to be because she was trying a new recipe, but that was what friends are for.
"But I'll send over some of the squashes, in the hope that you'll be more inspired than I am with them. And if I do go through with the holidays orders, I might need a few volunteers to taste test." Sure, she could have done the same old thing, but she wanted it to be a little different than what they might be able to get on a regular basis. And it certainly didn't hurt to give her something else to focus on.
