Dodged Valentine's Day: Carrot Cake with Thin Cream Cheese Frosting

I dodged Valentine's Day for the past 2 years. You can always tell and teach yourself to be happy with your SINGLE self for 364 days but not on Valentine's Day. Its the day that reminds you of your incomplete life no matter how jaded and bright your life is, its true that its really nice to have someone in your life other than your cute and chubby yellow labrador. Enough of the hypocrisy. Its sad being single on Valentine's Day. For a pride-driven woman like me its a brave thing to say and admit.

So its okay to sulk and get bitter today... its the human side of us. And its really okay to have a slice of uber moist and uber dense and ridiculously delicious Carrot Cake slathered thinly with creamy and rich Cream Cheese Frosting. Eat it with a small spoon and a glass of cold full cream milk... you wont have a romantic Valentine but a slightly better one.

* Good thing the Boston Celtics won today or else today will feel like "the day you had your wisdom tooth pulled out day".

There will always be next year... who knows?... and tomorrow its just another non-Valentines day. Back to my happy self.
