The Daily Eat: Blackberry Jam Cake.
After making this with blackberries for Easter, I was convinced Blackberry Week had to happen sooner than later. Happy Blackberry Week to you!
I’ve been wanting to try a jam cake for awhile now, but I wasn’t truly motivated until I saw this mouthwatering Blackberry Jam Cake. YUM!

Happy Weekend.
Another one of those weeks where the days feel like they’re moving oh so slowly, yet the week itself flies. Sneaky little guys, those ones are. I hope you have lovely plans that include at least a little time for relaxing!
This Weekend:
• snap some pictures of my finally finished china cabinet to post next week(!)
• celebrate Orthodox Easter Sunday
• plan landscaping while enjoying predicted rain
• gather clothing, accessories, etc. and plan Swap Party
• hang out with C
• catch up on 30 Rock and The Office
Happy Weekend!
