Pavlina's Marble Cake with Blueberries and Chocolate Chips

There's nothing better than homemade cake, is there? Back in 2011 I posted a recipe for Pavlina's Christmas Cake. I eat that cake every year on December 25th for breakfast. Lina is our friend, next-door neighbour, and someone who has become part of our family. We celebrate all the holidays together. 

In early June, Lina and her boys showed up at our door with this beautiful marble cake to surprise one of my girls on her 10th birthday. She shared the recipe with us on her Facebook page (Lina's Decor). I quickly snapped a few photos before the cake was devoured by the kidlets.
