Carrot Cake from Cedele

I have been feeling tired easily of late.

And as such, I can't bring myself to power up my laptop and write about all the posts I've been thinking about... of our Swiss trip (eons ago now) and of food I've eaten recently.

Work has been busy.. and stress has been creeping up to me in a very silent but real kind of way.

The stress comes from having to make sure I do a good job closing out issues or planning ahead for the next half a year by the end of August. My usually full to-do list at work just got fuller because planning for the next half a year isn't an easy thing to do.. not when there are so many other things to be done in the meantime.

I don't get stressed out easily so this isn't good. 

So anyway, I do feel very sorry for being such a lousy blogger of late.

I will try my best to post more frequently.

In the meantime, let me share that I think I've found my favourite carrot cake in Singapore.

I used to think that the ones at Coffee Bean are great, but now I think Cedele sells the best baked carrot cake with cream cheese frosting and walnuts. The cake is moist and not too sweet, with bits of carrots, pecans and spices.. and the cream cheese frosting is sweet, yet not over powering. They are really generous with the walnuts.. and I must admit I'm not a big fan of walnuts. But these are crunchy walnuts that The Husband seemed happy to eat.

So a nice slice of carrot cake shared between the 2 of us makes for a really nice supper. I would think that it would go beautifully with a cup of strong coffee. But it went really well with a glass of cold low fat milk as well.

Don't worry about blogging so much (cos I have been even more slack!) when you have so much on your hands. Like you, I have so much to blog about but can't find the time, energy and passion. Just a couple of days ago, I had that exact same cake at Cedele and thought it was good. I meant to blog about it but you beat me to it!
