We were back at Megan's last night for a post move celebration/payment of pizza and beer and she had made another of those carrot cakes from Food and Wine. This one was a very spicy cake, with lots of cinnamon, nutmeg and all spice in, and both the cake and the icing had maple syrup in! Yum! She has photos of both this and the double chocolate mocha version which I will add when I get them! I flicked through the magazine while we were there and the other versions sound just as heavenly. One has coconut in it with pineapple chunks and the other one that leapt out at me was the pecan/bourbon one. So sad that we will be away shortly and probably miss the testing samples of these! By the way, we just finished eating more cake for breakfast! Though I passed on the icing which was a bit too sweet for breakfast!
P.S. Our moving day (into a storage locker) fell on the one day there was a snow storm in weeks! It has been practising for Spring with mild temperatures and sun and dry-ness and yesterday we woke up to inches and inches of snow that kept lashing down all day! The irony. Today is beautifully sunny with bright blue skies, but when I checked the weather it says it is -17 with the wind chill - pick your preference for moving days now!
