Dr Murks is boiling carrots

Dr Murks is hungry. Drinking only coffee in the morning doesn´t give much energy. He has been awake already two and an half hours but no food. Dr Murks remembered that there should be a white cupboard in the kitchen-corner that should include some food. He decided to go and find out if he remembered correctly.
The way to the kitchen was not too difficult. In fact, the kitchen was only two meters from the desk where Dr Murks was working by. But Dr Murks didn´t like to rush after every idea he had in mind. He needed to think everything through very carefully. Now the decision was made.
Yeah, there really was white cupboard in the kitchen, but when Dr Murks opened the door, cold air game out from it and pinched his nose. Dr Murks closed the door quickly. "Uhhh, this was close!" The worse thing was that he managed to see that the white cupboard really included some food - a bag of carrots, written on "Kadarbiku talu", Estonian carrots. Dr Murks really liked carrots and now was the problem, how to get carrots out from the freezing cupboard and not getting flue. Dr Murks didn´t have to think much, he went to the pile of cloths and jerseys he had next to the working-desk and but all the worm cloths on he managed to find. The most important were the cloves, for not freezing his hands. And now he was ready to visit North Pole by hook or by cook!
Nothing very scary or impressive happened now as he opened the door of white cupboard. He rescued the carrots and found even an onion to join carrots in the pot. And there they went: boiling to the pot!
Dr Murks checked boiling carrots after every 2 minutes. He was so eager to taste them that he almost burned his fingers. But do not worry, I said "almost" not for real. The carrots got ready. Hmmm, they were good. Dr Murks ate and continued his interrupted business. The start of the day was good.
