rec: Beet Fritters

that would include these. Colorwise, they might be nice for
Valentine's Day. I am envisioning a sour cream and dill topping,
probably because of borscht. (I am forgetting how to spell that;
senility must be creeping in!)
Beet Fritters

==================================
You spelled it just fine! I've always liked that word: "borscht" .
Makes a satisfying substitute for a number of much nastier words.
"Oh BORSCHT!"

Yes, Borscht is correct, and I like your idea of the topping.
Hey, Barb likes pancakes. I wonder if she'd notice these were red? <veg>

Probably depends upon the regional source.
In Russian Cyrillic, it's BOPW, where the 'P' is an 'R' (like Greek
Rho), and the 'W' is a single character pronounced SHCH.
(Think "fresh cheese"). (And the W character derives from a Shem, with
an added tail on the right side...)
In case it can get through: ????

Ya, but how the hell do you enter the *right* "B", using western text?
I tried to paste in the Cyrillic, but must not have held my tongue
(yazik) right as I did it!
I do love playing with Cyrillic cognates, though.
If we ever buy another Mazda (my Miata is 14+ years old, and I'm not
changing my personalized plate!), I'm buying "3YM 3YM".
Was walking through a parking lot a few years ago, and saw a pickup with
the plate "KYPCK". City, battle, or submarine?

If you want another small puzzle, my plate reads "D 0X07"
