September is always busy, but every year
I seem to forget that fact, and am surprised how quickly it passes. The 15th was
my grandpa’s 80th birthday, but it’s the first day of October as I
am finally posting about it! We celebrated with extended family and gluten-free
cakes.
I was surprised the carrot cake was more of a hit than the chocolate cake.
We found the recipe on Elana’s Pantry,
a paleo blog. (For some of you who don’t know what the paleo diet is, it
excludes all grains, so it is even more restrictive than eating gluten-free.
Many of Elana’s recipes are almond-flour or coconut-flour based, rather than
using rice flour.)
We followed the carrot cake recipe
to the letter. Not. I’m always
giving my mom a hard time for modifying recipes before she even tries them.
