UJB-visualstrands_table-setting

Can you believe it’s Urban Jungle Bloggers time again already! This month’s theme is Planty Table Setting. As you can see, I don’t iron my cotton table cloth (or any other fabric). But let’s just call it ‘a rustic linen look’ annnd suddenly it looks much better ;)

For the occasion I baked some vegan lemon drizzle cakes. You can find the recipe here, but I did tweak it a bit. Just experiment and see what works best for you. The cooking time was much less too, because I used a muffin tin instead of a big cake tin. And always use organic lemons because you’re using the zest and you don’t want to be eating pesticides. Just a little tip.

I’ll have to bake some more, they went quickly…
Back to the plants (sorry, I always get carried away when it comes to food).

Beautiful Japanese fern leaves from the garden as a little planty accent.

And a little Tiarella Cordifolia stem. The flowers are so delicate and look great with a little cake.

Coffee is a must when eating sweet, I think. My trusty Bialetti percolator is perfect for the occasion. And it’s fun, too. Love that guy.
