Summer is coming soon...

Summer is coming soon...I hardly can't wait for it...I was mood for summer food from those long winter time...

I went to the store yesterday and get supplies for the week and dinner on Wednesday night. I saw the poppy seed in spice aisle. I never thought how much I really love poppy seed. I just don't know why but I cannot explain the taste of it. I do not know what to cook with poppy seed. I was really mood for summer dessert or breakfast. Whatever you wish for. I came across to this pinterest.com and one image came up in my sight. It was the poppy seed bread, but later I saw the lemon poppy seed bread. I click to one of their image to get the recipe and I saw that it was kind of complication to do those things. However, I remember that I made Lemon bread two year ago. I decided to give a try with my own recipe. I made it and baked it. It did came out really good. I really love it a lot.

The lemon poppy seed bread is very simple and easy to do. Here is the recipe:
