Farmgirl Saturday Cake

After yesterdays creepy topic, I thought we could all use a nice change of pace!

I know it's only Thursday, and I'm posting a cake called 'Saturday', but I wanted you to have this in time to make it this Saturday. :-) I've no idea why it's called a Saturday cake. Maybe cause it's so quick and easy, you don't mind making it on the weekend?

This cake was quite delicious. The recipe called for blueberries, but I used raspberries, because I'd just picked some. It lasted for a few days and tasted delicious even on the last day.

VERY QUICK! VERY DELICIOUS!
