Light shines through a window. It is morning. Baby carrots that didn’t grow very big because I forgot to thin them are backlit. They look like drips of ink spilling down into the roots. I notice the roots have little hairs coming off of them and this strikes me as very cute. The carrots’ little feet dip their toes in water. A cup is backlit and turned on its side. It reminds me of a moon.
