Make Pickled Beets

We've Got the Beet

Peter Piper may have picked a peck of pickled peppers.

But your tongue is about to get a twist of its own in the form of pickled beets. This easy recipe — which includes Atomic Fireballs as an ingredient — was formulated by Wheelhouse Pickles founder Jon Orren, just for DailyCandy.

If you don’t like beets, that’s okay: You can use almost any veggie (ramps, anyone?) your picky pants desire. The delicious treats make for a great snack at home or a stellar hostess gift — if you were to score an invite on a friend’s schooner.

Either way, they’ll definitely spice up your summer.

Dedicated Video E-mail: When in Rome

Blind dating. Speed dating. Online dating. You’ve tried everything in your shameless quest to find the perfect man.

So you’ll totally relate to When in Rome. The new film stars Kristen Bell as an ambitious, relationship-challenged New Yorker who takes a whirlwind trip to Rome. There she defiantly steals coins from a fountain of love, inexplicably igniting the passion of the men who threw them in.

Her new suitors include a sausage magnate (Danny DeVito), a street magician (Jon Heder), an adoring painter (Will Arnett), and a self-admiring model (Dax Shepard). But when a charming reporter (Josh Duhamel) pursues her with equal zest, she’ll have to determine if it’s the work of the coins or the real thing.

Which is still easier than online dating.

When in Rome opens this Friday. Check local listings for showtimes.
