2020 Easter Cake ~ and ~ Joy List Monday

Easter Cake 2020

 Hello Friends,
I hope you all enjoyed your Easter.
It was just the three of us for Easter.
And to top off the " different  Easter " our neck of the woods was hit by an Easter blizzard. We received over 7 inches of snow. 

We knew the weather was going to be frightful. And our plan was to grill a roast. So what does one do when a blizzard is forecast. Well, one grills the day before.

And without further ado...

Here is the 2020 Easter Cake...
 


Carrot Cake with Cream Cheese Frosting

 The carrot is made using colored coconut.


Joy List Monday

♥  a weekly ritual   ♥
a reminder to stop and pay attention to the little beauties and graces
that make life magical and to set aside time
for gratitude each day

 ♥ Easter letters, cards and suprises left on the door step

 ♥ farm fresh eggs from a friend

 ♥ blueberry muffins

 ♥ hot coffee on cold mornings

 ♥ another week of avoiding the virus

  4. The cake looks yummy but I'd be scraping off the cocunut - it's a texture thing for me. Yep I know I'm weird lol. Shame about the snow. Hope the weather is improving.
