LEMON POPPY SEED POUNDCAKE
This lemon poppy seed poundcake is summery and quick to make, and perfect for a picnic. One tip: cut up the poundcake before the picnic but leave it in the baking pan. It makes it easier to transport, and the pan protects it, too. Then serve it on its own, with ripe berries, and let the ants enjoy the crumbs.

Tips:
- Use fresh lemons for the glaze to get the best flavor.
- Make sure the butter and eggs are at room temperature before you start baking. This will help them to blend together more easily and create a smooth batter.
- Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing can make the cake tough.
- Bake the cake until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. This will ensure that the cake is cooked through but not overdone.
- Let the cake cool completely before glazing it. This will help the glaze to set properly.
- Store the cake in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
