Today is the final day of Spring Sweets Week......

Every year I am excited to join in the celebration of Spring, as we share Sweets with others in our blogging community.  This Event is hosted by Heather of Hezzi-D's Recipe Box.  It is a 3-day event that started on Monday when I shared an Irish Apple Cake.  Wednesday I shared an easy peasy Nutella Stuffed Crescent Roll recipe.  I hope you have enjoyed this event and the recipes shared as much as I.

Let's see what everyone brought to the table on this last day of the event........


Mixed Berry Lemon Loaf

Lemon just screams Spring to me.  The bright color and flavor of this fruit reminds me of sunshine and makes me smile.  I was originally going to stud this loaf with only blackberries.  When I went to make the recipe, I found that the girls had broken into them and enjoyed them in their yogurt bowls.

Luckily, I had bought several packages of assorted berries so instead of having to do another grocery run I was able to change the recipe to a Mixed Berry Lemon Loaf.  I used blackberries, blueberries and strawberries but you could use any berries that you enjoy.
