I would not double - I would probably add about 5-8 minutes and then start checking every few minutes.

Spike's Bitches 46: Don't I get a cookie?
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

You can do it, Steph!

I'm impressed Steph. Go you with the from scratchness. I concur about the 5 or so extra minutes and then checking every couple of minutes. Also remember that things continue to cook from stored heat BUT, carrot cake with actual carrot in can have higher water content.

Yeah, I agree. Time to bake is based on how thick the cake is rather than the horizontal dimensions, so if you're baking it in a larger pan it shouldn't take twice as long.
Also, don't double the salt. 1.5x at most or your cake will taste salty.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."
TCG called at noon today to wish me a happy one week anniversary. He is so adorable.
I think G is coming down with something, he spent most of the day clinging to me and bursting into tears at any little thing that went wrong For example a tangled string on one of his toys, rather than handing it to me and saying, "fix it", instant tears. It's not like him. Whatever he is coming down with; I am hoping he didn't manage to pass it on to me today.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine
Cool, will check at 30 minutes and then keep checking after that. The batter tasted good, so I think it'll turn out fine.
Also? The KitchenAid Mixer IS GOD.

Am in the waiting room at the chiropractor. Fingers crossed this works. Getting drunk last night helped by relaxing the muscles, but they are tensing up again.

move out and draw fire
I have no better advice about the cake, but I feel like Tep left out the obvious "The Boy likes carrot(cake)s" aside.
(To be clear, I'm not sniding about mentioning The Boy, but you frequently say "likes carrots" wrt him, so the joke occurred to me...I've over-explaining, aren't I?)

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
Bev, no, not just you! I find I like looking at younger people with an appreciation of their beauty but no sexual interest, while it's more often a more mature, and aesthetically less "perfect", form that interests me sexually.
