LET'S HAVE A LAUGH LEMON CAKE- 100 days of gratitude day 5 COOKING FOR FRIENDS

When I first started the 100 days of gratitude I really envisioned I would do it 100 days in a row…that didn’t happen but working on it.

I love cooking for friends. It’s such a joy to share food and a laugh.

I often use lemon bread/cake as the base for my strawberry shortcake. I often use blueberries in my lemon cake because I like the way they look.

This is a simple crowd pleasing recipe that takes only a few minutes to stir together and put in the oven.
