A very nice change from steamed, buttered carrots. I also added a bit of ground pepper. Went well with wild rice and roast duck. I used baby carrots, but looking forward to trying it with the varieties I find at the local Farmer's market, i.e. Purple carrots. Loved the nutmeg flavor. -
Nope - this is not a keeper for me. I found it had no taste at all. It needs something - I was thinking maybe a little sugar - maybe baby carrots would have worked better - I just don't know.

I also really like sewing. I make @ 1/3 of my daughters clothes. Reading is also a BIG staple in my life. One of my favorite ways to find a book is to walk into the library, pick a shelf and simply grab a book at random. I've read so many great books I probably wouldn't have found out any other way.
I also like to camp and fish with my DH. He eats, sleeps and breathes fishing. He would like to one day start his own company, he hand ties and sells fishing lures locally. And he loves my cooking and will try anything at least once. ;)
He works as a pressman at a local printing company.
