When life gives you lemons.....


Make lemon cake!

I had a hankering for this cake yesterday. It is an Ina Garten recipe and can be made with oranges instead of lemons if you prefer. I think the buttermilk makes it so good. And the grated lemon rind. And the sugar and butter and...you get the idea.

And I am really interested to see how the Florida primary turns out. This election year is turning out to be a nail-biter. Not that I need a reason to bite my nails. I'm afraid I already have that nervous habit. I must stop in the next few weeks so my hands look good for my trip. Yeah, whatever.

Well, nothing new to post. But I am counting to the big day when this girl turns 40!

That looks DELICIOUS! I have a really good recipe for Citrus Cake that I got when I lived in Germany. Called Zitronekuchen. Now you've made me really wish for a slice...

Char--I bet your cake is good with coffee or tea, too.
