Рецепт Recipe For Blueberry Cake
Hard To Resist This Blueberry Cake
I was with a group of people sitting around a table listening to them compare their debt levels. The majority of people in the group are spending more than they are earning. I listened as one explained how she was spending more on a store card than she was paying. And another piped in with how she had gone to her bank and got a loan to pay off a store card, but as soon as she had paid off all that she owed, she walked into the store and spent money on the card. Another person complained about not having money to shop during her lunch hour every day but she regularly shops at Woolworths for luxury items. Some people have had their parents come to their rescue and pay off their debt. It seems that they are not taking responsibility for their debts. They seem to think that credit on a credit card is money they have, rather than money they owe. People buy cars that they cannot really afford and somehow don’t seem to care! The saying having your cake and eating it comes to mind here. This Blueberry Cake is all for eating, and not for keeping. It needs the syrup to keep it moist and a thick layer of icing. Please do not skip the syrup stage as the cake will be dry and you will be disappointed, which is what happened to me the first time I baked it.
