Picking Carrots

I'm not very patient, and when gardening, you have to wait days, weeks, and months to realize the fruits of your labor. I'm ok with waiting for cucumbers to grow or checking up on ripening tomatoes because you can see progress, slowly but surely. Obviously, carrots are a different story. Malin and I jumped the gun by a few weeks yesterday when we picked this carrot. It was tasty, but a bit skinny.
