Not Your Average Carrot Cake

I have been baking over at the Home by the Sea.

My imminent retirement and perhaps the pandemic needs to shoulder the blame for my cooking one cake every week. Sometimes I will cook a second – depending on who is visiting.

This week the recipe is for Carrot and Cardamon Cake.

The M.o.t.h. (Man of the house if you haven’t been introduced) loved it. He thinks it is a great option because it contains vegetables! Just disregard the amount of calories in 310 g of sugar.

If you can get past that figure, it is delicous with a cup of coffee or tea. Highly recommended.

Cardamon on the other hand is amazing. Apparently Google claims it may have:

Antioxidant and Diuretic Properties May Lower Blood Pressure
May Contain Cancer-Fighting Compounds
May Protect from Chronic Diseases Thanks to Anti-Inflammatory Effects
May Help with Digestive Problems, Including Ulcers
May Treat Bad Breath and Prevent Cavities
May Have Antibacterial Effects and Treat Infections

That is something to ponder about

The Rosemaling fabric arrived from Spoonflower super quick, I was very impressed! The design size and clarity is amazing. I love the colors too, very vivid!

I love the Traditional Norwegian Telemark Rosemaling design. My living room/dining room/kitchen are all in Scandinavian motifs, with blue, black, and white as the focal colours. I have various Norwegian and Swedish rosemaling patterns, as well as other Scandinavian objects, decorating the above rooms. This is one more piece to finishing the look. This pattern is truly lovely and perfect in the overall look of the above rooms.

Love the wraparound graphics of the Telemark artwork! Gives your items a very up-to-date feel. My Dad was a master rosemaler, so I really appreciate a great job!
