Carrots

I've been baking again.
This time it was carrot and pineapple cake because today is carrot cake day.
I mean, it must qualify for one of your five a day seeing as it's got a fruit and a vegetable in it.
As you can see the topping was a bit runny but I didn't have time to salvage it as I was off to work shortly afterwards and it needed to be cut and put into a cake tin.
Tastes just fine.
 

On waking and looking out the window first thing I did wonder if one of the carrots I had bought was going to be needed for a snowman nose.
This is the first snowfall we have seen this winter.
This was how it looked at about 8am.
By 12pm it had all melted.

  2. You've had snow, and we've had sunny days for the last couple of days, it's so nice to see some blue sky for a change. I love carrot cake, it's a while since I made one, I think I shall remedy that soon.

  3. I have NEVER made carrot cake. Cripes, I might be a failure as a homemaker (!) perhaps I should go and make one now.....
    Although perhaps I will just look at yours and enjoy that. I'll make one at the weekend if I remember!

  7. The cake looks delicious! We haven't had enough snow to make a snowman for over a year. The only snow we had recently was just a thin covering and it quickly melted. It has been very cold though and I prefer that to wet and windy! x
