Often times my choices in cooking and baking for a week is distinctly controlled by what my husband happens to randomly drag home with him. This week, for reasons beyond my own common sense, my husband brought home nearly five pounds of carrots. So enjoy my recipe for Carrot Bread...

I followed the recipe exactly and my carrot bread turned out dry and crumbly. I'm not sure what went wrong.

This carrot bread is a bit too sweet for my taste, but it's still pretty good.

I'm not a big fan of carrot bread, but this recipe changed my mind. It's so good! The carrots add a nice sweetness and texture, and the cream cheese frosting is the perfect finishing touch.

This is the best carrot bread I've ever had. It's so moist and flavorful, and the cream cheese frosting is to die for.
