Happy Cabbage

Can you believe it?  While we were gone our lemon turned yellow, fell off, and turned squishy on one side as it sat in water for who knows how long.  Here is the pretty side.  Drew is telling me to be happy that it at least made a lemon.

I did make a couple batches of carrot soup with our large harvest of carrots.  It was the consistency of a butternut squash soup and I great way to use the carrots. First you roast the carrots.

Then you boil them with chicken broth, butter, onion, ginger and spices.  Very easy.

Here is the rest of the loot that was waiting for us after getting back from Washington D.C.
