Coconut Carrot Cake

I have company at my house and it's nice to make a cake when you know half of it will be eaten at one sitting. This is a winner: tons of grated carrot, walnuts, cream cheese frosting and coated with unsweetened coconut shavings.

Grilling Addiction

I'm grilling every other night, rain or shine. Tonight was rain sprinkles, Chipotle Burgers w/ Jalapeno Slaw, and Asian Tofu Rectangles (for lunch tomorrow). For the burgers, I used a pound of organic ground beef with a higher fat percentage, 3 chopped chipotle, a little olive oil, some splashes of Worchestershire, and charred until medium-well. I served with CostCo mixed greens with romaine pieces, diced avocado, cucumber and with Vidalia-Poppyseed dressing. Then, to use the rest of the hot coals, I threw on tofu bars that had a marinade of red chili pepper sauce, sesame seed oil and tamari. The tofu really got great char marks on it. It would be good in some Bun, Vietnamese-style salad w/ a fish sauce/rice vinegar dressing.
