Looks like a good contender to me for the contest. I know Brian will like this one. Thanks for sharing and for dropping by my page. My children always enjoyed carrots, but I don't know if children today would enjoy them. I also like the carrot cake, Hummingbird cake, and shredded carrots in orange Jell-O, etc. I could go on. Sara
