As some of you may be aware! I'm attempting to grow food on my balcony. I have a pot of lettuce, a few cabbage, some strawberries and tomatoes. But today I pulled my first carrot! Behold:
From the girth that was poking out of the ground, I was expecting a bit more... length when I whipped it out. Now I know how the ladies feel.
But it's not the length that matters! It's the quality! And damn was that little guy tasty.
There's something rather satisfying about plucking something you grew out of the earth and sustaining yourself on that bounty. I just wish I had a yard so I could scale up a little, the cabbage is not as healthy as it could be.
