Citrus Cake with Pineapple Lime Glaze

Hope everyone enjoyed their weekend.  We were busy here on the little farm.  My DS harvested some carrots and turnips this morning and was just so excited!


 What an amazing feeling to grow your own organic and healthy food!  This is really starting to become and addiction I think.  I have ordered so many seeds that I'm not even sure I'll be able to keep up with our Spring garden. It's just so hard to resist!  Seeing a little tiny seed grow into a cute and tasty carrot is definitely up there with some of the other wonders of life for me.

I've been receiving a lot of requests for gardening videos and I plan to start making some simple ones like seed starting and container gardening for herbs and easy-to-grow veggies soon. You don't have to have a farm to grow your own food. Even if you live in an apartment it is possible! So if you're interested or just curious be on the look out for those.

Now, I'll leave you with these week's video tutorial which happens to be a baking recipe.  My Citrus Cake with pineapple and lime glaze. My hubby has a ridiculous sweet tooth and I decided to come up with a recipe that had less butter and sugar than the usual but still packed a ton of yummy citrus-y flavor. Here it is!
