Last weekend was high tea-time with a couple of girlfriends. We all made something, and I opted for Nigella's '
easy almond cake'. It wasn't very difficult to make, but easy, no. The cake has marzipan in it, and it was hard work to mix it in with the rest of the ingredients. The cake isn't exactly healthy, so the workout for the upper arms was very welcome. Instead of the vanilla extract I added lemon zest. It was worth the effort, and like Nigella's other recipes, tasted very good. The other goodies are the result of my friends' cooking experiments.

Oh wow, you must have gained some weight after that feast. At least I think I have just by looking at the photos, everything looks so delicious!
