Victoria Sponge for Barbara Pym

IMG_20130602_180955I successfully baked a Victoria Sponge cake in honour of the Barbara Pym centenary (and because I feel like eating one). Recipe from Nigella’s How to Be a Domestic Goddess, with fresh Ontario strawberries inside. Here’s hoping it tastes as good as it looks. And happy birthday, Miss Pym!

    That looks delicious! Happy birthday, Barbara! I will always think of you when I’m enjoying one of her books. One of my favorite authors ever and all thanks to you.

    I hope you are hanging in there–I know how hard it gets in the end. Good luck to you and I can’t wait to see the first picture and learn her name.
