Baby Carrots with Dill Butter

This past weekend, Nebraska was treated to a Spring blizzard. The ground was so warm here that we didn't really have much accumulation but just to the north of us, they received 11 inches. I am ready for warmer weather so I can plant my herbs. For my birthday this year, my husband gave me an AeroGarden. It's a nice treat to be able to pick herbs even when there is snow on the ground. I've never done a lot of cooking with dill, so I was anxious to try Baby Carrots with Dill Butter. In addition to being pleasing to the eyes, the flavors were yummy!
