Carrots

I'm a little obsessed with garnishes right now, I even bought a kit! Imagine how excited I was when I ran across something special and tasty to do with my fresh carrots from the Portland Farmer's Market! This is my prep for a super simple, but truly lovely garnish...

According to the Morning Sentinel, Somerset Humane Society in Skowhegan received three to four tons of carrots recently from a trucking company that wanted to get rid of them after a supermarket manager turned them away because some were bruised. Who knew carrots could get bruised?
