Everyone who knows me knows that I have a sweet tooth. I am even ashamed to admit that I will choose a slice of cake over food, yes it’s that serious and I also have the cavities to prove it. So it wasn’t exactly a surprise to everyone least of all myself that I ventured to the kitchen this afternoon looking for something sweet to munch on.

Alas, there was nothing, my mother is a disciplined diabetic and my little sister aka my personal baker is away at school. I was tempted to go outside to get some chocolate or something but as I was putting on my shoes I was reminded that it snowed last night. Chances are that my car Odessa, would not be please about having to leave her spot.

So I went back to the cabinet and found a box of carrot cake mix. As much as I love sweets especially cakes and pastries, I cannot bake if someone paid me. I suck, seriously I am pretty bad at it. I don’t know if it was the fact that I haven’t felt like myself in so long that I decided to give it another try.

An hour later, the carrot cake was done and I even put icing on it. I must say that it looks rather scrumptious and taste just as good at it looks.

Hurray for me for being brave enough to give baking another try. Maybe I’ll start baking once a month. Happy sunday!
