What I am excited about: Carrot Cake

This Easter, for the first time ever, I am an orphan.  This is super exciting.  My brother lives in California and my parents are going to visit him for a bit of a spring break.  I thought about calling aunties or grandmas and then I thought better of it.  Sunday is also the one year anniversary of my first burlesque performance so I will be celebrating with brunch at my house, hosting a couple of friends.  Twirly Skirt and Buddha Writer will be coming over for quiche, donuts, and at least one baked item from me.  I'm planning on carrot tea cake from my girl Martha Stewart.  No more trusting non-bakers for recipes.  This actually looks a lot like a banana bread recipe I love and can successfully make and I like that it's in a loaf pan.  That's about the only thing that I can see that makes it a tea cake.  I tried google and could only gather that tea cake is a spice cake.  Sweet Rush and I discussed and that's what she thought too...anyway, I'm hoping it's a delicious adventure!
