holy carrots batman!

Every time I pull one of my carrots from the ground, my inner child can't help but do the happy dance. As a first time gardener, I hope I never lose this feeling.

This long line of carrots is growing so beautifully, that I can't help but snack once in a while; and for a guy who eats 5-6lbs of carrots a week, I'm surprised I can hold myself back.

Get on it boy! I've got some Pike Place fresh from the roaster (usually within the week) sitting in my cupboard!

5-6 pounds of carrots a week? What colour is your skin? Seriously, I had a friend who went a little overboard when she went veggie and her skin took on a fake tan hue.

Oddly enough Cheryl, the colour really only comes out in my palms. On more occasions than not, especially if I haven't seen a friend for a few weeks, they always ask about my hands..'Chris, are you ok?..your hands are orange'

Provides some great humour, especially during a doctor's office visit.
