When Ran came back from the (super)market with a Small bag full with carrots ,I was sure It's time to bake a carrot cake, I know summer carrots are not good as winter carrots.. but they were nice and fresh, so why not?..but I was wrong - ran Intended to eat them .. finally he told me.. Ok please bake us a carrot cake, but the best one you can.. I don't know if this one is the best one ever..(I didn't try to bake others yet, but I will..) but we like this cake very much, dark brown,very moist (maybe too much oil ?)..
