Its the first weekend of spring! Already! 

And that classic Melbourne spring weather has certainly arrived: rain, cloud, wind, sun, hail, sun, rain... all in the space of 3 hours!

It does however mean two of my favourite things are in abundance: wattle and jasmine!

I went foraging and filled the car and then I made a cake to celebrate.

The cake is a test version of my upcoming October Cake - so at the moment I’ll keep it hidden under some lush vanilla swiss meringue butter cream. (hint: it involves an Australian native and an old school ingredient.)

How did you mark the first weekend of spring? Or Autumn if you live upside down on the opposite side of the Earth!?
