Ingredients:

Carrot Salad:
2 lbs of carrots sliced julienne way - very long thing strands, spaghetti like

2 tablespoons salt
1/4 cup canola oil
1 large onion chopped
6 cloves of garlic chopped
4 teaspoons ground corriander
1 teaspoon paprika
1 teaspoon cayenne

2 tablespoons country style whole mustard
1/2 cup mayo (until correct consistency)
Salt to taste

paprika for topping if desired

Directions:

Carrot Salad:
1. Combine carrots and vinegar and salt and squish it all together with your hands until carrots are soft and silky feeling.
2. Heat up canola oil. Add in chopped onion. Fry until soft, but not golden. Add to the carrots.
3. Add in garlic, corriander, paprika and cayenne and sugar. Stir together.
4. Let sit overnight before serving.

Deviled eggs:
1. Cut eggs lengthwise. Take out the yolks into a bowl. A spoon works best for getting them out.
2. Mash the yolks with a fork or spoon. Add mayo, vinegar, salt and mustard. Sprinkle paprika and green onions on top.
3. Scoop the yolk mixture back into the egg whites

What we liked:

We loved trying a new variation of recipes we've made before. 

What we didn't like:

Nothing,these were great. they were both the best we've ever made. 

What Kaspian thought about it:

He didn't notice anything but the watermelon. The watermelon he loves. We bought the watermelon a week before the party and he's been wanting it every day. It was a very exciting moment when we actually cut into it. Kaspian stuffed both his cheeks with watermelon and looked like a little chipmunk. Then, he asked for more. 

Next time:

No changes needed
