I would love to experiment with fresh yuzu, but this is a citrus fruit we do not get here. There are always egg whites in my freezer so I used them to make this yuzu angel food cake with dried zest.

I seem to be in an endless negotiation with store staff. We went away for the weekend and Dave left our vanity bag in the car. The car was parked at our office, and we were 2 hours away. I was not unduly stressed as we were close to shops, and I bought the things I had to have. However, in my haste I did not buy the correct face cream I use. As it was on the 3-for-2 special I bought 3. I used one as I had no choice, and took the other 2 back the following week. That meant a long discussion where I explained to the manager I only expected the credit for 1 item. Once she had understood that I didn’t expect a refund for the item I didn’t pay for, and that I was returning it we could move on to the next issue.
Today’s inspirational recipe from Lavender and Lime ♥ Yuzu Angel Food Cake ♥ #LavenderAndLime Share on X
I had to get sunblock as I get eczema if I am not protected. I chose a small tube that I could keep in my handbag. And I selected a product specifically aimed for babies. This should mean I don’t have an allergic reaction to it, as it was not the brand I normally use. The product had dried out and to me this means it was old. When I told the manager I was returning it because it was gritty she told me I could not buy something for myself that was for children! The fact that it had hard pieces in it should be worse for babies! I made her see my point of view as I would have just thrown it away had they not refunded me. Do you have to explain in detail why you are returning goods?

It’s interesting to see cream of tartar used in this recipe Tandy, I don’t see it used very much, I love it in my pancake recipe. Your cake has risen beautifully and is no doubt very light to eat. Yum!
I have never tried using cream of tartar in pancakes. I think I have had the same container for two decades!
I would love to get my hands on fresh yuzu. all I’ve ever gotten is bottled juice. Good looking angel food cake!
I have never seen the juice – I will look out for it in the UK next month 🙂
I do like making angel cake, Tandy. I’ll have to look up yuzu. I’ve not idea what it is. As for returning items, I never have time to deal with that bother so usually end up giving stuff away if it doesn’t fit or isn’t right.
