Lemon Cake

Yesterday I baked a cake, instead of cleaning the house. But let me plead my case...My youngest and I were spending most of the day alone since my husband took the oldest on a canoe trip. So when your 10 year old says: "Mommy, let's make a cake, we haven't made a treat in a long time", what could I do? I dropped everything and made a cake.

The recipe is Paula's Lemon Cake and it came highly recommended by Adrienne. Hers looks more beautiful than mine, but it is as good as she says. Today I invited my mom for afternoon coffee and cake, and both of us with the boys enjoyed a delicious piece of cake.
