| Our family favourite, Marble Cake.... or as it is known in Europe, Marmor Guglhupf. |
A Guglhupf Cake can be prepared with either yeast or Baking Powder. In this case I used baking powder as the raising agent.
 |
| Just to be a little creative, I decided to place a small bunch of herbs in a glass in the centre of the cake. |
 |
| The inside pattern of the marbled effect of the two batters is always a surprise....and it changes with every slice of cake that you cut! |
 |
| I received a beautiful bunch of St Joseph's Lilies for my Birthday. I have had great delight from them....watching the tight buds open, and then enjoying the delightful fragrance for many days. |
 |
| There is something oh so special about receiving a special bunch of flowers.... especially ones that will last more than a week. Thanks to my special friend, Grainne for spoiling me with these beautiful blooms! |
To learn more about growing your own lilies, pop over to the Starke Ayres Garden Centre for more information about propogating these rewarding bulbs belonging to the Lilium family. Happy gardening!
 |
| ...... and how unusual is this bloom? |
 |
| Back in the garden...... my favourite Nasturtinum leaves with their large surface area capture the rain drops and dew drops in perfect style. |
 |
| Oh yes, and while I was out in the garden my 4 legged garden angel decided to help me. Purdy is the Queen of HER garden! |
 |
| ..... and of course the best place for a sandy snout is the leather couch!! |
 |
| As I sign off from this blog, I send you sweet wishes fragranced with the perfume from the stately St Joseph Lily. |
