carrots

Harvested some carrots today. Short 'n Sweet variety- these were definitely all stubby, though their girth at the soil line tempted me to pull them.

The greenery alone looks fantastic. I've banded it and saved in the crisper, will look up some recipes tomorrow. Maybe sautéed greens, or carrot soup?

These I tossed in a bit of butter and flash-steamed in a pan with nutmeg. The kids wanted to eat the "funny ones" with twisted forked roots raw, out of hand. Thought that one looked like a dancing figure, and another like a short fat man.
