Name 3 Things You Did Or Will Do Today

[SunriseChickers]

1. About to do a "German Baking" lesson on call with my sister (we bake things - but the ingredients and tools are referred to in German!)
2. Fold my laundry... Maybe.
3. Play fetch with the dog.

Ended up with a lovely carrot cake. Two 8" layers... But much for the two of us to eat, so hopefully I can bring it to fellowship hour at church!

Carrot cake freezes well, if you decide to not take it to church

I got to sleep in because I didn't have school, it was wonderful.
Went for a run.
I dug up some of the nasty grass in the garden.

 

[Evadig]

I went to church.
I helped put up the ledger board.
I will worry about my Eva. She is having neurological issues, can't walk.

Good to know! I'd just wonder about the cream cheese frosting. I do freeze most of our baked goods, but they aren't frosted.

I finally got around to trying it, and it's a tad disappointing. Drier than it should be because I used pregrated carrots (I didn't have good time or energy to do it myself) and a gluten free flour that was a bit more drying than usual. I also cut the sugar, imagining the amount to be quite a bit sweeter than necessary. Ah well, it's alright! It's more like a bread, I just wish the carrot came through better. It's somewhat lacking on flavor. The cream cheese frosting adds some sweetness, but I think it almost detracts from the "bread" itself. It was still a fun thing to do!



Meanwhile, I played fetch with the dog, but didn't fold my laundry.

Neighbor came by and picked the tomatoes. Supposed to freeze this weekend.

She went home with tomatoes, bell peppers, cucumbers and a pumpkin.

That's an easy fix ... ICE CREAM!
