Carrot cake

Band pratice was cancelled, so I suddenly had the evening free. I felt like making something desserty, and we did have all those carrots...

Joanie helped out by grating the carrots and prepping the pan and all that jazz. Mostly cooking is a nice "alone time" for me, but it was fun to cook with someone else as well.

The cake turned out nice. The cream cheese icing turned out a bit sweeter than I perhaps would like, but it did prevent us from eating the entire cake in one sitting. Also, the recipe made for a lot of cake. I spent some time slicing the big sheet of cake into little Tupperware-ready squares, so they could be taken to work (and so they'd stay in the fridge).
