When I spray painted this pot yellow,
I knew I wanted to plant red geraniums in it...
I saw this yellow flower at the nursery and planted it in the middle...
i just loooove red and yellow together.
...do you like
Lemon Cake....?
meee, too...
It is absolutely DELICIOUS....
it's a knockoff of Starbuck's LEMON LOAF...
HERE'S the recipe..
Now....
this is good....very very good...
but STARBUCK'S has it beat...
wish I knew how they made theirs...
but, this is very close.
I used a Lemon cake mix
French Vanilla pudding...
and REAL LEMON JUICE along with LEMON ZEST...
and followed the rest of the recipe .....
One thing I CAN promise....
if you like lemon...
and you follow the recipe,
you will be ♪...walking in the sunshine.....

Wish I lived nearby.Would clean the kitchen for anything you fixed or scrape the bowl.You did great with your flowers.
ReplyDeleteGreat idea to plant the spotted yellow flower amidst the geraniums. Lemon cake, mmmmm. It is best eaten outside.

Oh girl, I love that song:) I have some pots I would like to paint, YELLOW... your flowers are gorgeous! Have a blessed day dear friend, HUGS!
ReplyDeleteWhen you added the yellow flowering plant to your yellow planter along with the red geraniums, it was inspired. It took that planting right over the top! Roger Miller has that smooth, mellow thing down pat. I've been lately listening to "King of the Road" for the Bangor, Maine reference.
ReplyDeleteI love re and yellow too, it's such a happy color combo. That lemon cake looks delish. Have a Happy Fourth,bj!
ReplyDeleteGreat photos! Thanks for the share:)
