Forgotten Carrots

I was reading a post on another blog,  awholeplotoflove , which reminded me that I had carrots in the vegetable plot.
Whoops !
Our tiny vegetable garden got sown and planted in a hurry, quite late in the season. Except for picking all the spinach at the beginning and some lettuce leaves every now and then and harvesting a nice produce from the courgette plants, I had forgotten about the carrots.
How can you forget about the carrots ? Well, I don't know !

A Wow! moment.

Stumpy and fat ! Deep orange and with a sweet and earthy scent.

Chomp chomp chomp.. Not bad for forgotten carrots.

Mystery solved.  And it looks like I still have time to harvest the rest (all 14 of them).
