Banana Caramel Cake

Today I baked this lovely looking cake for my neighbour Suzie, she brings me over farm fresh eggs from her parents farm in Yackandanda. I like that we trade products I only wish it happened more often with others in the neighbourhood. I can see grapes growing from the man who lives behind us, I may have to offer up some veggies from my garden.
