Oh dear. Carrot cake will poison you all. I love carrots. I even like carrot juice. And cream cheese frosting. But carrot cake? :smt078

My recipe is pretty much like bethy's. The only difference is that I've found that the cake turns out lighter if I follow the dry and wet ingredient instructions minus the eggs, then mix them in one at a time just before adding the carrots. I have no idea why that works; it just does.

I used this one:

But mine didn't turn out as dark for some reason. Still yummy, though! :D

Dear dear Lad...

I hate to see you in such despair.
It breaks my heart :(


So I thought to myself about what I could do to brighten your spirits, to restore your hope, to make you feel all happy and warm inside...






Here you go dear.

Enjoy and feel all hope restored.

I cannot continue this war alone. It seems the world is hell-bent on steering itself toward ruination. I no longer consider this my problem. I am moving to a cave deep in the Himalayas, away from all human contact. It seems that the world has moved on, abandoning hope, kindness, and basic human decency for a baked good made with a salad garnishment.

I do not wish to be a part of a world that has made that kind of a choice.

Carrot cake is still disgusting.
You will read somewhere that all writing has to do with one's genitals. Don't dwell on this. It will make you nervous.

I don't like carrot cake. Those pictures were vomit-inducing.


I do however like zucchini bread, with the chunks of zucchini in it. I think Im not the biggest fan of the cream cheese frosting maybe.

Carrots belong in veggie trays.

not cakes or muffins.
