I ws always fond of lamingtons when my aunt made them for me as a little girl. Great memories here. Great post. High 5.


I spent 3 months in a camper traveling thru NZ and Australia. Always the highlight for me is FOOD. I loved your vegetarian pies (do you have a recipe for those?) and i LOVE lamingtons. Thank you so much. Debbie
