Surprise Harvest

After dinner a few nights ago Dave and I went out to inspect the back 40 (40 yards, not acres) we pulled a few weeds and made a few plans for the next growing season. Just as we were about to wander back in the house I noticed  I had a small patch of carrots that I had completely forgotten about. Hiding there in the shade of the Privet hedge, amongst the grass that had nearly taken them over. I sat and took my time digging them up with ... my bare hands of course... a small but unexpected surprise.
