Roll it, Pat it, Mark it with a...
















Smelling the "flower"!










Licking the spoon.









It was baking day at our house today.

For many years (since before we met, 12 years ago?), my husband's favorite cake has been carrot. There was no chocolate groom's cake at our wedding reception- it was carrot all the way [totally delish].

So for the past few years, I have baked a carrot cake from scratch for him on his birthday, which is coming up again very soon.

But today was super special because it was the first time B helped.
He stirred the eggs, smelled the flour (I tried to explain that it only sounded the same as "flower" but he didn't quite catch that), and generally had a pretty good time. He also smelled the vanilla and cinnamon and was slightly more impressed with those than the "flower".

He even licked the spoon!
