Since spring is coming soon, here's a quick summary of all my garden projects.

Blue carrots: I'm growing a patch of the two varieties that crossed to make the carrot pictured here. Next year, they'll cross, and then in the 2nd year, I'll have more of these roots.

@vxo I was really surprised when it turned up. That one root redirected all of my efforts with carrots.

That's so cool. I love how it just looks like a little bolt of lightning

@vxo Hrmmm... according to translate.google.com, "Thor's blue lightning" translates to "Bláa elding hans Þórs" or "Bláa elding Þórs" in Icelandic (closest modern language to Old Norse).

@vxo I always think of Thor when thinking about lightning, so it seemed fitting.
