want some carrots?

No, really. Want some?

The Mr. pulled these out of the garden this afternoon.

Earlier in the summer we had some trouble with bad soil and the bed not draining. I didn't think the carrots were going to do anything - so I just started to ignore them.

One day I dug up a carrot and it was really, really tiny. At that point I just knew the carrots were done for and we'd dig up the puny little things at the end of the season.

I am still shocked at the size and amount of carrots that came out of the garden!

Now the real question is - what should I do with them?? Suggest your recipes, please!
