I was suddenly tickled pink.
After eating red strawberries.
Coz I remembered...
I had a bunch of clean orange carrots...
...which I got for only Php 10.00
(approximately USD 21 cents in the current exchange rate).
Baguio City vegetables are cheap if you get them there.
Then I remembered the beautiful broccoli.
Which I didn't buy anymore.
I felt inexplicably blue.
you will have to excuse me...these penny-pinching days of mine means carrots at these price make me ecstatically happy...
ReplyDeleteand now I will look for a carrot recipe and I will do something to these carrots and plant some of them...stay tuned :-)
Plant them where?
ReplyDeleteits like this...I was going to post it somewhere when I could remember it clearly..but never mind..dito ko na lang i-explain..hehehe..
ReplyDeleteI had a book kc before which was like about crafts and fun things for kids to do. Useful din actually. One entry I remembered was for cutting the tops of carrots and putting them in a container or deep dish with pebbles and water. If you keep the pebbles wet (probably cover them with water though its not to the brim of the container), you will see the carrot tops sprout.
I actually found it funny na parang may carrot nag grow with the green leaves going up and up..though of course, there is no big carrot root if it was planted in dirt.
I don't know actually what happens if you can make it last longer coz when I tried it before, I didn't really pursue it to its jungle carrot leafiness :-)
