Beautiful words and image for your Saturday: 💚 Beautiful words and image for your Saturday: 💚
“Teach the children. We don’t matter so much, but the children do. Show them daisies and the pale hepatica. Teach them the taste of sassafras and wintergreen. The lives of the blue sailors, mallow, sunbursts, the moccasin-flowers. And the frisky ones–inkberry, lamb’s-quarters, blueberries. And the aromatic ones–rosemary, oregano. Give them peppermint to put in their pockets as they go to school. Give them the fields and the woods and the possibility of the world salvaged from the lords of profit. Stand them in the stream, head them upstream, rejoice as they learn to love this green space they live in, its sticks and leaves and then the silent, beautiful blossoms. Attention is the beginning of devotion.” 💚

How beautiful is their colour?! ❤️💕And I baked this cake.....you can see I ate a decent portion for breakfast! 😋That’s what Sundays are for I say. 🥮🍰 Happy cake eating day to you. 🧁
Recipe: (adapted from @abcinmelbourne) 

500 grams plums
125g butter (at room temperature)
1/2 cup castor sugar
2 eggs
1 1/2 cups spelt flour 
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 cup ground almonds
1/4 cup milk

Method

De-seed the plums and cut in half, add 3/4 cup of water in a saucepan.

Drop in the plums and poach for about 3 to 5 minutes until they begin to soften.

Remove and allow them to drain and cool in a colander or sieve. The skins will come loose, remove them if you wish.

Preheat the oven to 180C.

Cream butter with sugar until light and fluffy.

Add eggs one at a time, while still beating, until incorporated.

Turn of mixer, sieve flour into bowl and add almond meal and milk, carefully fold together until incorporated.

Spoon half of the mix into a 23-25cm buttered cake tin. Spoon the plum mix across the cake batter, then spoon the remaining batter carefully on top.

Place into oven to cook for approximately 1 hour, or until a skewer inserted into the centre of the cake comes out clean.

Allow to cool a little before taking out of the tin, serve at room temperature with yoghurt or cream. ❤️😋🍰 #letthemeatcake #cake #cakeforbreakfast #sunday
