"Please do not make it too sweet," my friend asked me, so I chose to bake the spiced walnut and carrot cake that recently was in a CC newsletter. It turned out really well and the cream cheese frosting served for nice white stems. :D Ever since I saw it in a book by Alan Dunn, I wanted to try old man's beard, and this was a good opportunity. I love it together with the oak, ivy, and snowberries. There was a squirrel that wanted to gather acorns, but it was too fast for the camera. ;) Thanks for looking.
