Spring Time! - Carrot Cake

Question of the week:
What's your favorite thing about Spring?
A: How the whole World seams to be more colourful than normal!

Here in UK it is so amazing - I think all Europe - we can see every season turning beautifuly from one to another, totally differnt from Brazil. Brazil is a tropical country so we have lot of thunder tropical showers, weird summers and winters. Did you know that we can go to the beaches on winter time in Brazil? Yes, because the coolest temperature on winter is around 18C degrees minimum! :)

Here in England we have marvellous tullips and spring flowers - that really make the landscape a gorgeous view. Even though I'm not a 'flower person' I can enjoy plant some and watch them growing.

This week I will teach you all a very easy recipe that always remind me about Spring time.
