I don't know that I have been overt about my obsession with carrots, but they are truly my favorite thing in the world. I love to eat them, I love to quilt them, I love everything about them. My friend Sarah of
Happy Olive Designs, made me a carrot family felt magnet set that I display in my craft room. I firmly believe that carrot quilts work in any
milieu, which explains the quilted carrots on my desk at work and kitchen table at home and the carrot wallhanging in my dining room. Plus, I have a 3 foot long wicker carrot hanging in my kitchen. Now that you understand my adoration of carrots, I want to bring the following serious issue to your attention. This was forwarded to me by Sarah and was created by
Natalie Dee (who, by the way, has some awesome carrot t-shirts and totes on her site!).

Edited to add: I got featured in my very first
Etsy Treasury. For those who don't know what that is, a treasury is a curated gallery that houses items chosen by other sellers. This particular treasury features quilted items that depict fall. My fall wallhanging was included! Please check it out, but don't delay, one other thing about these is that they expire. This one will be gone like the wind by Friday!
My boys like to listen to a group called The Arrogant Worms (don't ask). They actually have some pretty funny songs. One is called "Carrot Juice is Murder". A spoof on vegetarians.
ReplyDeleteNo carrot cake for my birthday?!! Truthfully, I'd rather have applesauce cake but it's not sold at the grocery store where DH & the boys pick up my cake at the last minute! I suppose then I'd have the apple lovers after me anyway. Don't you ever sneak some of those lovely, sweet, almost candy baby carrots?
ReplyDeleteLOL! I'd love the hear the song, Audrey! And, Teresa, I LOVE baby carrots - cruel, I know! - and carrot cake with cream cheese frosting - yum! Carrots are perfect in every way - to eat, to look at, to quilt! And Happy Birthday, Teresa!!
