Whilst I'm not a wonderful cook like others in my family, I don't mind cooking a lovely old fashioned cake every now and then. One of my favourite cakes to cook is actually a lemon and coconut cake which is an old Woman's Weekly recipe. However, I think my family may be a little bit 'over' my lemon cake so tonight I went in search of something new to cook. I didn't have to search very far as I found a recipe I am going to try in the latest Real Living magazine. My family and I are all heading away down to my cousin's beach house this weekend so I might just try my hand at this recipe tomorrow night. I figure that if I post about it then maybe I will actually do it!!
PS. Thank you all so much for the super kind comments you left me in my last post about my grandmother...Considering your interest in her, I might post more about her in the future.

Have fun at the beach house, and that cake looks delicious. I always go for anything with apples when baking for my family!

Your grandma is so smart! And let us know how your baking goes - I'm no good at baking cakes - pies are ok, especially my apple pie - but cakes.... :(

Sounds yummy. My 6 year old loves baking at the moment and we bake every Sat afternoon and then eat it while watching the Six Nations rugby!
I love country style cakes. Would you post your lemon coconut cake recipe?
I have a delicious spiced chocolate banana bread recipe that is to die for. My own little invention.
Oh and your Grandmother is divine! Would love to hear more about her.
I saw this too and was tempted to make it this weekend! Love your blog and your work Anna! xoxo
I would love that lemon coconut cake recipe too -- my mouth is watering...

Yes I saw this recipe in the mag too, let me know if its worthy of a bake up and I'll give it a go :)
I am excited to see how this cake turned out! I hope it was a hit!
How interesting! Years ago and I mean about 20 yrs ago my mom gave me a book called "Cakes and Slices" which was a collection recipes from an Australian weekly with that exact cake on the cover and everytime I think of Australia I think of that cake! I have made it many times and I live in Quebec, Canada a place with many apples! I have 3 apple farms within walking distance from my home! MMMmmmmmmmmmm! OH! and I love her too your grandmother she's just so lovely as you are.
