Mom's Lemon Poppy Seed Cake

Today marks the one year anniversary of this blog. I can't believe it has been a year. This post below is my very first one. I thought I would share it with all of you since maybe you didn't see it because of it being the first and all. Thanks for all the support I continue to get for this blog. I love to share my recipe and hope that they are making someone life easier.


I owe all of my cook ability to my mom. I still call her and ask her cooking questions all the time. So what a good way to start off my first post on my cooking blog and dedicate it to the person who taught me everything about cooking. This cake is so delicious. I have very fond memories growing up of my mom making this cake and taking it to people in town for their birthdays. And I still try and carry this tradition on today. Growing up, I always complained how come we never get just a poppy seed cake for our family. You always bake it and take it to someone else. And now my husband says the same thing to me every time I make one. Maybe one of these days I will make one just for us.
