Carrot Girl

As most folks in the valley know, the Birchman has been wandering these woods for ages. He’s the quiet sentinel who startles anyone foolish enough to scar the land. Legend claims he rose from the ashes of a colossal forest fire, and let’s just say—you don’t want to end up on his bad side.

Cooper and The Birchman.

This year, though, a new hero sprouted onto the scene: Kaleman. Kale is a super-green, and Kaleman is—naturally—a super man powered by it, devoted to making sure everyone gets their daily dose of vegetables.

Kaleman.

My granddaughter Scarlett knows these characters well. She also happens to be the unrivaled champion of spotting the biggest, sweetest carrots in the garden.

At some point she decided the Birchman and Kaleman might need backup. And so, Carrot Girl was born. She’s bold, unafraid of a little dirt, and blessed with extraordinary eyesight—useful, since Birchman and Kaleman’s vision seems to fade a little more each day.

Carrot Girl!

Scarlett used an AI program to create the movie poster above, which is rather delightful. After a few experiments and nips and tucks, she looked at it proudly and announced, “Now this is a movie I’d watch!”

    That’s a really good poster – I’m going to have to produce a poster on my computing course tomorrow and I don’t think it will be anything like in the same league as that – I haven’t had any imagination really since I left primary school! And I probably don’t have the computing knowhow in creativity!

    Those look great carrots you’ve grown!

      The poster was made with AI. Scarlett loaded the three photos of us and provided prompts to produce the poster. Kids know better than us how these things work.

      The carrots were very good this year. Root vegetables grow good here.
