Two desserts this week. You smart people are excited. You dessert nazis are annoyed. Haters. Well luckily, this dessert has no added sugar in it. So really, it could just be a side dish for all you people who hate desserts and deny yourself happiness. And if you’re doing the sugar detox like me, this is a perfect dessert for you. If you aren’t doing the sugar detox, you are a much happiner person AND are lucky because you can add honey and chocolate chips to make it stupid good. You b*tches.
That paragraph was all over the place.
So this dessert is made from carrots. Obviously. Carrots are slightly sweet. That’s why some genius out there started making cakes from carrots. Have you ever tried my carrot cake cupcakes? HOLY BALLS. Maybe one of my favorite desserts. Maybe. Anywho, on this sugar detox, I can still have carrots. Woot woot. Puree that sh*t. Add some to vanilla to that sh*t. And love that sh*t. That’s what I did. Like a kid in a candy shop. And I hear carrots are good for your sight. I can see through walls now. Fact.
I kinda miss Drew Barrymore in movies. I like her.
Wanna know something gross? I have a scab on my inner thigh from rope climbs. And now it’s peeling off. It’s a blessing in disguise that I can’t fit into jeans because that could get real uncomfortable. I don’t know why I’m telling you this.

And sorry to be the killjoy, but carrots don’t improve eyesight. That was a myth created by the British military during WW2 to explain why their pilots could see so well at night. Cover story so that no one else knew they had radar technology and they could win battles in the dark.
I can see clearly now, the rain has gone!
Carrots may not help your eyesight, but you DO need them for proper vision. or rather, you need vitamin A. carrots have a ton of vitamin A. there are 3 different ways in which we use the Beta-carotene. one is for the cones that make us see colors. one is for the rods which are for night vision. and there was another one which is for mucous production or something…i can’t remember but i learned it in class last quarter in grad school.
anyways, this recipe looks awesome, iwill have to try it soon!
Sadly, the human body doesn’t absorb vitamin A from carrots, despite carrots having plenty. We only absorb vitamin A from animal sources.
Carrots are still really good for us, though.
We absorb A from liver, cod liver oil, egg yolk, butter and cream.

Re the dancing; I think you should go to the Games next year and dance off with people.
Looooove that idea
Oh I love the sound of this. When doing sugar again I reckon a little maple syrup would go well with this!
Can’t wait to try this out…I love carrots and carrot cake!!
I know I could find the answer if I watched the video again or searched through an entry or two…but is there a website that explains the detox you’re doing? I have a problem saying no to lemonade and cookies and probably could use an intervention. Thank you! This pudding looks ridiculous, and I never would have thought of carrot cake pudding so thank you!
