      Peter Rabbit will definitely be making a stop at your house for some of these yummy carrots. I love a simple recipe (cause I hate to cook) so thanks so much for sharing.

      Gwynn, this is the most beautiful dish of healthiness I've ever seen. I will definitely be looking for these carrots in their array of colors...and when you added butter to the bunch, I was sold! Thanks for sharing.

      Gwynn, I've never noticed the different colors of carrots (so it's apparent I need to because my eyes have missed them). I have to go looking for them now. I love glazed carrots so I'm sure I'll love the roasted ones.. Thanks for sharing this..
