Poppies, Poppies

Yesterday in our History reading we learned about China and the opium trade. It was a great chance to talk about drugs and what they can do to our bodies, different kinds of drugs and such. But the best part of discussing opium is that after we had talked about it we decided to bake a poppy seed cake. I had to prove that poppies aren't all bad.

I wish mine had turned out looking this good. we tried it in a bunt pan but it kinda stuck and only partly came out.  I pieced it together and we ate it anyway. It was tasty even if it wasn't pretty.
