I absolutly love carrot cake, and my brother's birthday is tomorrow and my mom forced me to make a cake. I chose carrot, and found a absolutly divine recipe. Sorry if your alergic to carrots, but you can take the nuts out. This recipe is fairly simple to make, with lots of common ingredients. There's no tricky stuff, just a lot of stuff.
Ingredients
4 eggs
3/4 cups vegetable oil
1/2 cup applesauce
1 cup white sugar
1 cup brown sugar
3 teaspoons vanilla extract
2 cups all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons baking soda
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
3 teaspoons ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
3 cups grated carrots (you can use a cheese grater for this, grating wither the otehr stuff is long, difficult and it maeks a pile of mush =( USE A CHEESE GRATER)
1 cup chopped pecans
1/2 cup butter, softened
8 ounces cream cheese, softened
3 1/2 cups confectioners' sugar (powdered sugar)
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 cup chopped pecans
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease and flour a 9x13 inch pan.
In a large bowl, beat together eggs, oil, applesauce, white sugar, brown sugar and vanilla. Mix in flour, baking soda, baking powder, salt, nutmeg and cinnamon. Stir in carrots. Fold in pecans. Pour into prepared pan.
Bake in the preheated oven for 40 to 50 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean. Let cool in pan for 10 minutes, then turn out onto a wire rack and cool completely.
To Make Frosting: In a medium bowl, combine butter, cream cheese, confectioners' sugar and 1 teaspoon vanilla. Beat until the mixture is smooth and creamy. Stir in chopped pecans. Frost the cooled cake.

^_^; thanks for the feedback most def!
When it comes to storylines, i'm lackng... besides it is 2009, by now almost every idea has been done, and even Shakespeare wasn't original.
So, I have no idea what to do now because [loading...] was suppose to be a sort of.hack knock off. Would it be wise to try to continue with a twist or start soemething totally different >

Yeah, .//HACK isn't much of an actiony anime, I believe it focuses mainly on character development... which would make a fairly boring comic.
Hmm, when you say I need to deal out a comic atleast once a week does that only pertain to "story" comics or in general?
