Yes, perhaps some green juice is in order. I could even freeze it in ice cube trays . Hmmm. Haven't done that yet.Kellyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16376408610318291367noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2448437153499137672.post-89134008717094114862011-12-17T17:52:01.361-08:002011-12-17T17:52:01.361-08:00I love the heft of the carrots!

Looking over your blog, I especially like your endangered species series, a gentle way to remind people. Bravo!<br />I also am an artist living on a small farm, and am into gardening (but not vegetables)...in Tunisia (expat American). And my husband gives me just about the same haircut--the only way to go!<br />best, nadiaMulticoloredPieceshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06161913409399066123noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2448437153499137672.post-83226251169402340372011-12-16T04:09:48.194-08:002011-12-16T04:09:48.194-08:00Thanks for all the comments.

Writing every day, even if it was a scrap of paper with a quick list that I could translate into a full report later. Am glad that I created this journal because I refer back to each year at a particular date to see how it compares to this year's pattern. <br /><br />The carrots are in the fridges. So sweet they are, that I am loathe to adulterate this flavor by transforming them into pickles. I think we will just eat them raw. Should stick some down in the root cellar in straw or leaves to see how they keep. Good research to add to the journal . <br /><br />Peggy, I am a recent convert to raw carrots. Never did I like the taste of the grocery store carrots. Dead flavor. Dry. I can imagine that the carrots you found at Green Acres were a huge improvement . Look for them at a farmer's market in the late spring and into the summer. Surely someone harvests into the fall as well around here.Kellyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16376408610318291367noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2448437153499137672.post-7303461472371330872011-12-15T21:53:43.884-08:002011-12-15T21:53:43.884-08:00The carrots are beautiful!

I must say, huge taste difference than from the 'regular' brands in the grocery store. They were so full of flavor. I can only imagine how great YOUR carrots are by comparison. PLUS your photographs are outstanding!Peggy wilsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02238176701386868418noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2448437153499137672.post-65382096814974375262011-12-14T03:06:57.000-08:002011-12-14T03:06:57.000-08:00wowza!....I got tired just reading this long list ...wowza!....I got tired just reading this long list of all these goodies!....and now do you have to put them all up somehow?.....<br /><br /><br />what a gorgeous haul! <br /><br />xokerin rosehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11807814584138160980noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2448437153499137672.post-65845291719807241122011-12-13T22:10:46.701-08:002011-12-13T22:10:46.701-08:00AWESOME. i love reading your farm reports because ...AWESOME. i love reading your farm reports because i never seem to be on top of recording ours. :) tulsi and i are making a farm report journal for papa's present. :) maybe that will motivate us. :)coloredsockhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08864420849686975448noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2448437153499137672.post-79124967733956108302011-12-13T17:27:06.007-08:002011-12-13T17:27:06.007-08:00Nice!Nice!Sue and Spikehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07953370444775270424noreply@blogger.com
