I made my husband a homemade carrot cake. I had to make it with Czech flour (which is different than US all-purpose) and a cheese called gervais instead of Philadelphia cream cheese. They do have "carrot cake" here in CZ, but they usually use farmer cheese for the cheese. I'm not that found of it for this cake, and find gervais an almost exact replica of American cream cheese. I used a Czech recipe as a basis, but "improved it" adding pineapple and raisins along with the nuts, and adding more spice. I'm not great at cake decorating, but I did my best. I originally wanted to make marzipan carrots for the top, but I could not get food coloring. Instead, I carved a mini carrot out of actual carrot and put a sprig of celery greens as the carrot greens. The cake quality will be determined when we cut into it. The icing tastes good. At least I could sample that.

It snowed again today, but there wasn't a lot of accumulation. It's supposed to snow again on Tuesday.

I've been getting mighty tired early in the evenings, lately. I wonder if it's related to my increase in carbamazepine ER, and taking half in the mornings. I used to only take it at night. I never thought of it as sedating, though.
