When my mother was coming for a visit from her new home in Arizona, I was over the moon excited to see her.

I remember the day that she moved like it was yesterday. She wanted to retire someplace where it was warm, and she already had friends that had headed out that way. Anyways, as I watched her drive away with that trailer full of her belongings, I was devastated. She had lived so close all my life, I wasn’t sure what I was going to do without her.

In order to take up some of my spare time, I decided that I would start baking. She was always an amazing baker, so I figured it was in my blood. I had come up with a lot of great cakes, pies, and cookies, but my favorite was a carrot cheesecake that I had seen on Facebook. It was three layers of heaven that were almost too good to make for no reason at all.

Now that Mom was on her way, I had a reason to put it together. When she showed up and saw it, she couldn’t wait to get her hands on it. Between her the kids, and my husband, I was lucky to even get a piece of it. I love making people happy with food, and this is a surefire way to do it.
