Courgette Cake Season

I like cake. Specifically I like interesting cakes/loaves with lots of flavour. (No Victoria sponges here, thank you, and buttercream about once a year)

two pieces of courgette cake and a mug of coffee

Courgettes/zucchini are everywhere you look at this time of the year in the UK and incorporating one in a cake makes sense (to me!). This obliging cake is adaptable, freezes easily, can act as breakfast or dessert too and is an easy one to whizz up and bake while the oven is hot for a meal.

It uses eggs but I may make a vegan version soon and amend the recipe.

Here's a PDF of the recipe

Statement lichens on an estate boundary wall a few miles from home. Bruce unmoved by my interest in these yellow dots this morning.

A flock of Tinbird kits restocked the shelves today. Pocket sized tins, with everything you need for a wee birdie stitchery on the move. 
Find them and other little tin projects on the  shelves in the Tart’s store.
Autumn shades in tonight’s little stitchery. 
The twilight/crepuscule/gloaming is sneaking in earlier…
And just like that, the seasons switched🍂

My block print samples on scraps of vintage/new cottons/linens, tidied and sewn together yesterday.
This will be my autumn travelling stitchery project, using some lush threads.

A wee Saturday sewing day with this cloth I bought from @metaphorracha some considerable time ago. Based in Bangalore and with excellent eco credentials, it is a company with heart. I hope I can visit again one day.
