I made these Lemon Poppy Seed Scones a few years back and they really kick started my love for these tiny little crunchy balls. I just love adding poppy seeds to baked goods. So, it seemed only natural to make a vanilla cake and then add in little pops of crunch into it. I adore vanilla anything my car smells like vanilla, my house smells of vanilla, even my bin bags smell of vanilla… if there’s vanilla in the title chances are I’ll love it. I decided I wanted a Vanilla Poppy Seed Cake as it’s a simple flavour combination with a little twist. Now let’s talk about my birthday cake this year. Fingers crossed we find the perfect house soon! We have lined up numerous viewings this weekend and I’m checking the newly listed properties daily. We are actively searching of course as both of us are ready for something new, but we aren’t going to rush into buying a house we don’t both love. We haven’t found anywhere yet, but we’re in a very privileged position because we are selling our rental house, so we can sit on the money until we find somewhere and still have somewhere to live. However, last Friday we accepted an offer and we are both very relieved and excited to get the ball rolling with this big move. I was getting pretty down as the house has been on the market since mid January. What with the current climate, we’ve been very anxious about moving and how long it will all take. We are in the mood to celebrate with this Vanilla Poppy Seed Cake today! There are three reasons I am super upbeat this week:Ģ) Mr AN and I have been together 8 years today – that’s almost a decade!! He irritates the heck out of me sometimes, but I couldn’t be without him haha!
