Lemon Drizzle Cake recipe
3 large eggs
170g self raising flour
170g caster sugar
170g butter
Zest of 2 lemons
1 tsp baking powder
For the drizzle:
Juice of 2 lemons (the ones you zested)
110g icing sugar
Method:
1. Preheat your oven to about 180C and grease a loaf tin.
2. Thoroughly mix your cake ingredients together until they form a nice smooth batter. As mentioned, I used a mixer as I’m a lazy cow and like to spend my time farting about on social media more than I enjoy getting arm ache from beating cake mixture, but your method of mixing is entirely up to you! A mixer is much quicker, but I don’t need to tell you that, do I?
3. Pop your cake in the oven for 30-35 minutes. Whilst you’re waiting whisk together the icing sugar and lemon juice from the lemons you zested earlier. It’ll look really runny but don’t worry – it needs to be to soak into the sponge and will set surprisingly easily.
4. After half an hour test your sponge by putting a skewer or a knife into the centre – if it comes out clean, your cake is ready. Once ready, take the cake out of the oven and using a skewer, push holes all the way into the sponge and pour over your drizzle mixture. I went a bit mad at this stage, which made for a very moist cake, so bear this in mind before you go totally skewer happy!

Joke - The Nun Fainted!
Little Susie was not the best student in Catholic School. Usually she slept through the class.
One day her teacher, a Nun, called on her while she was sleeping. ‘Tell me Susie, who created the universe?’
When Susie didn’t stir, little Johnny who was her friend sitting behind her, took his pencil and jabbed her in the rear. ‘God Almighty!’ shouted Susie.
The Nun said, ‘Very good’ and continued teaching her class.. A little later the Nun asked Susie, ‘Who is our Lord and Savior?’
But Susie didn’t stir from her slumber. Once again, Johnny came to her rescue and stuck her in the butt. ‘Jesus Christ!!!’ shouted Susie.
And the Nun once again said, ‘Very good,’ and Susie fell back asleep..
The Nun asked her a third question…’What did Eve say to Adam after she had her twenty-third child?’
Again, Johnny came to the rescue.
This time Susie jumped up and shouted, ‘If you stick that damn thing in me one more time, I’ll break it in half!’
The nun fainted !

“When you want something, all the universe conspires in helping you to achieve it.”
As everything on our planet is made of atoms, everything is connected to each other, and whatever you do, you interfere with the rest of the world.
That’s why, if you have a strong desire and you put your entire heart in it, the whole universe will, as Coelho puts it, conspire in helping you to achieve it.
How to apply it:
The universe will only start helping you to achieve what you want if you know what you want and want it really bad.
There’s a difference between wishing something would happen and putting your heart into it and taking massive action towards your dream. The universe and the law of attraction always work as hard as you do.
If you are not convinced about your desire, you can’t ever persuade anyone else to support you. But if you genuinely want to achieve a goal, your energy will attract people and opportunities that will help you to get there — every single time.
The first step to attracting your desires is to visualize them in front of your eyes.
Grab pen and paper and write down how you want your life to look like in one, five, or ten years from now. Or create a beautiful vision board with images that represent your ideal life. Pinterest is a great tool to do that.
Creating that compelling, concrete vision is the first, but incredibly important step to attract all the greatness you deserve.
Paulo Coelho
