Victoria Sponge

I feel so grown up, when someone stops in for a cup of tea, and I have a Victoria sponge made up to offer them.

Proper grown up stuff. 

Which feels pretty weird given I most certainly do not feel like a grown up.

Anyways, the rain is pouring and the wind is blowing,

and people kept popping in for tea,

and cake.

Well, certainly nobody declined tea and cake.

And now it is gone, I am actually starting to think about making another.

Two Victoria Sponges in one week?

That is maybe a little too grown up.
