Bearing Gifts

I decided that when I next visit my brother I should not go empty handed as I often come home with produce from his garden. I suddenly remembered that he'd mentioned he was partial to Lemon Drizzle Cake and I used to make these very regularly so my problem was solved. Actually, I haven't made one for several years so I thought I had better check out the recipe which is in a Girl Guide Cook book compiled in 1979 as a fund raising event. (I did consider putting in a picture of Sam and Becs in their uniforms but thought I might be in trouble; however if anyone expresses an interest I might reconsider). All the parents were asked to contribute recipes and I was even lucky enough to have a couple included. I cannot remember how much the booklet cost but it would not have been much and was good value.

This little booklet has been well used over the years hence the state of it, well thumbed and splattered with food as you will see from the recipe page.











The end result was passable and I am sure my brother will enjoy it, I plan to visit tomorrow. You'll have to wait to find out what else I will be taking him. I'll give you a clue..... yes it's food and loosely relates to this
