I just baked my first cake ever.

Was a carrot cake.

Dunno how I've gotten this far in life without making a cake... but I've somehow managed it.

The cake part was fine, and easy enough... professional brewing prepared me well for such matters... it was the icing that was a bit problematic. Almost didn't have enough... think I wasted too much between the layers... also didn't have one of those icing spatulas... so it looks a bit like a 9th grader's Home Ec. project.

Shoulda taken a pic before I put it in the fridge... but after getting that Aluminum Foil delicately wrapped around it, there's no way I'm opening it back up until serving it tomorrow night.

I have a new respect for chefs that work with icing.
