Thank you. 🤗 I needed coziness at the moment.

[@HappyHobbit]

I hope this brings you some warmth and joy! 😊

[@waywardpelican]

Love it! I basically make them the same way. However, instead of the dill, celery seed etc, I add garlic, oregano, and a jalapeno.

[@PipsKay]

Oh pickled carrots sounds so yummy..nice

[@HappyHobbit]

Right?! I can’t wait to try it!

[@michelletewhata7768]

Very rare to see purple carrots, it looks like a Māori kumara. It’s very sweet I will try your recipe, love it😊

[@HappyHobbit]

Right? In the old days it was more common to have carrots of all colors. I have also observed that purple varieties of everything I have tested so far seem capable of taking the heat much more!

[@michelletewhata7768]

@ I haven’t seen a purple carrot yet, maybe I find it in Rural area at a Farmer Market near me. You got me curious to find out.

[@michelletewhata7768]

@ I haven’t seen a purple carrot in our at stores. I asked my sister we do have it. Only from a Farmers Market or any Choice Fresh Store.. Aue I’m only finding out. I love purple cabbage, cauliflower and onion! Can’t wait to try the carrot and now I learned it can handle heat🙂

I've never pickled anything before, so it's fascinating to see how it's done! Do you use the carrot greens for anything? I grew carrots for the first time last year and the greens were so beautiful I hated to throw them out. I googled to find out if they were edible and they are! One thing you can make with them is pesto sauce, so I tried it and OH MY WORD it's SOOO GOOOOOD! Usually I'm a basil pesto girl but the carrot greens pesto had a brightness to it that was so refreshing. I'm growing carrots again this year, letting them winter over and I'm almost looking forward to getting the greens in the spring as much as the carrots themselves. XD

[@HappyHobbit]

OMG! Yes! I tried the same thing but unfortunately I included the tough sprigs, as well, so the pesto turned out a bit…. “Woody.” 😂 I am still learning the art of WHEN to harvest, so I imagine that makes a big difference. 🥕 Thank you for sharing - more people should know they can eat the greens!

[@galenrandir]

Those look like Cosmic Purple carrots. They are so pretty! The only carrots I’ve grown that are darker, are the Black Nebula.

[@HappyHobbit]

I think they may have been! I would love to try that variety, as well!

[@cristiewentz8586]

Harvest/Thanksgiving.....I love high feast days ❤️

[@HappyHobbit]

Me too!!

[@paulvincenti2]

Nicely done! Happy Thanksgiving to you and yours!

[@HappyHobbit]

Thank you! Happy Thanksgiving to you and yours, as well!

[@nartyteek]

I think carrots are the only thing I've never pickled. I do think they look pretty cool. I bet they're good on a sandwich.

[@HappyHobbit]

Oooo I didn’t think of trying them on a sandwich. And how wonderful that you’re a pickle master! I am only a mere padawan pickler.

[@jimmygreeson160]

Pickled demon eyes! Genius!

[@HappyHobbit]

😂

[@englishclasschaug]

My skate coach puts a wet paper towel down next to the onion to keep from tearing up. She SWEARS by it. I wear contacts so I don't have to worry.

[@HappyHobbit]

I tried that and it definitely helped! But then I felt guilty over wasting a paper towel! 😂

[@malkakaufman9359]

This looks interesting. Wasn't so sure about it. But, you make it look so good. Maybe I will try to make it one day. Happy Thanksgiving to you and the whole family!

[@HappyHobbit]

Thank you so much! I am excited to try it and see what it’s like!

[@malkakaufman9359]

@@HappyHobbit You are welcome! Looking forward to your feedback and see if it's worthwhile for me to make it.

[@margaret-mure]

Have you tried lighting a candle when you chop onions?

[@HappyHobbit]

Oh my goodness, no - is this a potential aid for the burning eyes?

[@margaret-mure]

⁠@@HappyHobbitthe flame can help draw the chemical in the onion away from reaching your eyes, keep the candle close to the onion as you cut it

[@HappyHobbit]

@@margaret-mure Totally gonna try that!

[@charissawilkinson9270]

Next time you cut an onion, don't cut all the way through the roots. They are less likely to make you cry.

[@HappyHobbit]

That’s a great tip! I’m going to try that next time. 🧅

[@charissawilkinson9270]
