Lime frosting...


These pics are from the frosting I made some time ago; lime cream cheese mmmm. o easy to make and soooo delicious. Don't make the same mistake I did...be cautious of how much lime juice you use unless you want your frosting really runny.

 I have a friend visiting this weekend for a week so I will try to sneak in as many posts as I can in the coming days.

Delicious carrot cake...

Do you ever buy cook books with the intention of cooking something out of the ordinary and expanding your culinary skills but in the end it ends up being an unused accessory in your kitchen? Well I've had this Jamie Oliver cook book for almost 2 years now and although I've flipped through the pages drooling at every recipe, I haven't managed to cook something...until last night that is. I decided to try out his recipe for carrot cake with lime mascarpone icing. A bit of work but very delicious! I'm also trying out my new app on my new iPhone4. Love the filters. 



Ready to go in the oven.

The juice and zest of 2 limes. I love how the limes look...almost like the hair of a wet shaking dog. The smell is also very refreshing!
Mascarpone, cream cheese, lemon juice and lemon zest.
