Local Bounty: Carrots

I am not sure about you, but I just get giddy about local foods. It happens when I go to the farmer's market or lately when I pick up my produce/meat orders from the O'Daniel's farm. This morning, I picked up some bacon, brussel sprouts leaves (I can't wait to give that one a try), arugula, tomatoes, red butterhead lettuce, and simply the prettiest carrots ever. You can't buy carrots like these at any store around here for $2.50. I am not sure you can even buy carrots like these around here, period.
I thought I would start a local bounty post every so often to let you in on some of the wonderful local foods we have around here. For today, very pretty carrots...
