GARLIC BUTTER! *drops the mic*
*picks up the mic – can’t stay quiet for even a minute*
Hey Hey Hey! Happy Sundaaaaay! ‘Sup!? How was it last night? Did you run out of candy? There’s a surplus at my house because I bought too much. On purpose, of course. What else are we going to do in the coming freezing-season other than sit around and eat Twix and Kit Kats?
I’m also dealing with pink and blue eye shadow smeared all around my eyes and there’s bright pink lipstick still sitting on my lips.
AND. The time change. Please, let’s illegalize this fall-back thing right now. No one needs the moon at 4 pm. She is much, much prettier AND needed at about 9-ish.
Guess what else?
GARLIC BUTTER ROASTED CARROTS
You have GAWT to add these Garlic Butter Roasted Carrots to your favorite (think Thanksgiving) side-dishes. GAWT.TO. Or I’ll just come over and make you love ’em.
Really, though. If there was ever a way to get people to LOVE carrots, I think this is it. The texture and flavor are just BE.YOND.
Also?
Garlic + Butter is one of the best food-marriages, in my opinion.
I know the majority of you will be all, BUT THE BUTTER! It’s not good for youuuuu!!
I actually am from the other camp – the one that believes in BUTTER. Luckily for me, there was an article I read last year in BonAppetit about all different butter-studies and I kinda convinced myself that butter was ALLGOOD.
Besides, when you pair butter with garlic and carrots ⬅ health-status remains unchallenged – something has got to give.
And since I don’t think there’s anything left to say, could you please start checking these around the 22.4 minute mark? Thanks.
ENJOY!
