carrot cupcakes!

one of my best friends, carley just turned 20 a few days ago!
i couldn't celebrate with her on her actual birthday because we were
both at home on break and not at school.
but i made her carrot cupcakes to take back to school
cause she really likes them and i have a really good recipe that
i found on allrecipes.com last year that i made for Easter.
here are some pictures i took while i made them.
sorry the quality is bad, their cell phone pictures.
cake ingredients mixed together
pineapple, walnuts, raisins, coconut, and carrots all mixed together.
this picture makes it look gross, but it's actually really colorful. :)

haha, this picture is sideways, but this is them before
i baked them. and i forgot to get a picture of the finished product,
but i frosted them with cream cheese frosting with lemon zest
mixed in. and i made some mini ones, too. :) so cute!
i also made her a super cute gift, but i haven't it given it to her yet,
so i'll post that later!
