Personal Notes:
Grandad Weese would grow the beets and Grandmother would can or preserve them. When Grandmother was no longer able to stand for long periods of time, Grandad would grow and can the beets. One day at supper, Grandmother said, "These must be Beet Pickles that I put up because they are much better than Olav's." Grandad had a little smirk on his face because he had opened the jar that had his handwriting on it; he was simply proud that she bragged about his beets thinking they were hers.
