Yummy......

It was a wild day yesterday and the snow continued throughout the day.  Plows were busy up and down the streets but with most businesses closed it made it easier to keep up with the plowing.  Today it is bright out and small flurries still falling but hopefully train will be running to Miramichi.

 

Will be gone till Monday folks so blog picked up after that day.

 

See you.....

 

 

 

 

 My mother in law use to make a delicious carrot cake and this looks very close to it.  I also remember many a times my friend Rose and I got together to head to Pizza delight for ceasar salad and carrot cake, lol  Remember Rosie.. miss those times.
 
Ingredients:
3 eggs beaten
2 cups sugar
1 1/4 cups oil (canola, or light Olive)
2 1/2 cups flour
1 tsp. cinnamon
1 tsp. baking soda
2 tsps vanilla extract
2 cups medium coconut
2 cups finely grated carrots
1 19 ounce can crushed pineapple (undrained)
1 cup chopped nuts (walnuts or pecans or no nuts! )

Preparation:
Beat eggs well, add sugar and mix well. add oil and beat a little more. Then add the flour, cinnamon and baking soda. Mix well.  Add coconut, grated carrots, pineapple, nuts and extract. Mix well. Pour into a 9x13 pan. Bake 1 hour at 350 degrees. I line the pan with wax paper and enough to hang over the pan for easy removal. If icing the cake make sure to let it cool completely.

Icing:
1/2 cup butter
6 ounces of plain cream cheese
2 cups icing sugar
1 tsp vanilla extract

Ice cake, make some tea or coffee or pour yourself a big glass of milk and EAT!!
