Honey and almonds cake (Honigkuchen) Cake de miel y almendras

And here we are again for another recipe.
 The days fly  with everyone here, although now Gerardo is going to work in the office two days and the others here.
 It's all so curious I wake up in the morning and say, no it's not true and then I remember yes. 

Everything suspended in the air because you don't know what your life will be like in another month. 
I read a lot, when I can, because I had made jams also  and try recipes. We have to continue living, what else can we do?
 I pray a lot also for some especially and for many suffering people.

There is one thing that must always be cooked at some point. And especially now I prefer to cook everything here.
I made this honey cake yesterday, and is a german recipe, I love honey, and it is delicious and it is not a difficult recipe, I think you will love it with a cup of tea or coffee it is always delicious.
I wish you all the best, be well and be patient, a hug to all!
