Carrot Boy and his mutant brothers

So our garden has been doing really well. We have eaten some and thrown away other stuff, but the point is that it has grown!! Anyway two days ago Kurt decided that it was time to harvest the carrots. The green tops are growing out of control and he was positive they were done. Here is a picture of the green tops.
They are in the top right corner. Anyway big, long, luscious carrots tops. "Mmmmm. Can't wait to harvest and eat gigantic, delicious carrots." So Kurt pulls them all up at once and this is what we grew....
Sadly these do not even qualify as "baby carrots" Teeny tiny carrots. Lauren likes to eat them. They are so cute.... except for the last one... we have named him "Carrot boy the mutant" He is genetically superior to his brothers in every way. Here is a close up to our creation. It may seem like a fuzzy picture but that is just a side effect to photographing a mutant. We are going to create the new and upcoming series called the Baby Mutant Ninja Carrots. Featuring Carrot Boy the Mutant and his nine ninja brothers. Its a work in progress. In fact I would be surprised if it even has a pilot.

That is one funky lookin' carrot. It looks like a torso- & head- less carrot sculpture. Or maybe a pair of carrot pants.

Kurt thought it looked like a tooth molar!
