Making good use of a bag of carrots!

I bet you thought I was going to post a recipe didn't you. Well no! I just remembered I had a pretty mangy bag of carrots in the garage and then spotted the donkeys in the field at the back of my house. I thought there were only four or five of those darlins but shake a bag of carrots and nine come running up! Add to that the sunflower seeds I potted up in my living room just last week are already starting to sprout and I'm ridiculously happy. I guess I'm back to being easily pleased again. Stay safe everyone.

    Almost as easily pleased as me - I was well satisfied, and only saw your video and picture! I guess we’ve moved on from life being a box of chocolates and now it’s just a bag of carrots.

    How wonderful to have these lovely animals so close by. I love donkeys. I understand your joy in your sunflowers. I love to see my little seeds popping up, it never gets old. :D xx

      I think the donkeys are my favourite - even if they are noisy buggers!

      It's a small price to pay though isn't it!

    Yes, it's good to be easily pleased. I think a bunch of donkeys would be very cool right about now!

      I usually am easily pleased but this has been eye-opening all the same. And they are lovely (if noisy)!

    Donkeys are just heartwarming and that's all there is to it. Thanks for sharing your carrots with them and for sharing them with us.

    Sometimes it's the little things ...a few carrots and nine donkeys!

    Thanks for the smile.
    Stay safe, stay well, stay back.

      I was in the field to begin with but when I saw them all come trotting down I moved back behind the wire. They're still lovely aren't they!

    How sweet! I am waiting for my recently potted seeds to sprout, hoping something peeks out of the dirt soon

    That is so cute. Behind my house there lives a woman with a herd of Chihuahuas, 7 of them. I would much rather they be donkeys.

      Oh lordy, I prefer the donkeys too. Chihuahuas - nah, not my thing. I like big dogs!
