Speaking of carrot cake, restauranteur Cameron Mitchell, who owns a number of establishments around the country, but mainly in Ohio and big cities in the U.S. has a very famous carrot cake on his menu. The restaurant closest to us is Orlando, and I may need to go there for this: The rest of the menu looks great but this is a pretty epic slice of carrot cake, I think. Cream cheese icing with some slivers of cake? In a puddle of lemon curd? I like cream cheese icing. But, I’d at least like to taste some cake with my icing.

That's my kind of cake. IMO, cake is only a vehicle to hold the frosting up. I wouldn't even bother getting dinner first- would rather enjoy it after first having a light meal at home, maybe with a good glass of wine.

Oreo update: Just tried Lemon Oreos. Vanilla cookies with lemon-flavored filling. I will be buying these again. Very tasty. Surprisingly balanced. Not weird at all. Much better than Carrot Cake Oreos.

My grandma likes the lemon ones. They are okay. Lemon is not my favorite flavor.

I like the lemon ones but I've only had the Thins, not the regular sized ones. I also found dark chocolate filled Oreos a few weeks ago. I did NOT need to know those existed.

I did not need to know that, either. But now that I know it, I cannot un-know it, and a package of dark chocolate Oreos will probably join a package of lemon Oreos in my basket the next time I go shopping. This will not be my fault.

I take complete & total blame for it. I may have to buy own package in penance for sharing this knowledge.

As an update, I bought a package of the dark chocolate Oreos this weekend and am getting another with my grocery order today. And some lemon ones.

It won't be long before Trader Joe's will have their dark-chocolate-covered mint chocolate sandwich cookies (with the little bits of candy cane in the chocolate). They are only available during the holiday season.
