Personal Notes:
One of our favorite ways to enjoy G-Ma's pound cake was when she sliced a piece, buttered both sides, and toasted it on the griddle. Because her refrigerator ran cold, it was often accompanied by a glass of flaky ice milk. Delicious!

G-Pa always licked the beaters and the bowl. A real treat for the one you love most.
