Citrus blueberry cake

I found this recipe on the facebook and tweaked it a little. It was originally called lemon blueberry BREAD but it's more of a cake.

'Tastes delicious and it was quick to whip up.

Requires cooling time before icing. 

I might change up the fruits and nuts and make it with almonds and strawberries as soon as they are in season.
