 Happy Tuesday Everyone!!!Phew..It's another week again.

The lemon cooking is continue,actually this is the last lemon left in my fridge after the previous usage.Eventually I bake this delicious Lemon Poppy Seed Pound Cake  especially for my friendd.In fact,I brought  along while I went to visit her few weeks ago and spend some precious times with her.There is nothing special I'm afraid but I knew she love my homemade cake.

I doesn't know what's  happened to me nowadays.It's seems the lemon made me some kind of wierd feels.Yes indeed!!I love the irresistible citrusty scent a lot.The crusty bits of the cake surface were a real treat,its simply elevating my taste sense.

Give a little try if you are really fancy of lemon...I swear you'll love it.Suprisingly it was a treat for us with a cuppa tea.
