don't ask me why but i've been in a cooking mood lately :) went grocery shopping over the weekend and came back with loads of baking materials. on sunday, i made sherperd's pie (something easy to start) for the family and on monday i baked carrot cake.
so, why carrot cake? simple reason being i didn't have a cake mixer for the other cake recipes BUT i think i (or my mom hopefully!) will be investing in one soon :) anyway carrot cake attempt wasn't quite successful. as you can see from the photo, the cake wasn't as fluffy as it should be. it look a long time to cook the inside such that the top layer was burnt i had to slice it off before creaming it. but the fruit of one's own labour always tastes sweet :) now the task is to make it even sweeter haha.
