Note: Anthony loved this cake when he was a little guy.
I remember going to my grandma’s farm and she would serve a big country dinner with chicken, mashed potatoes, and, carrots that us kids picked from the garden,
and having her ginger cake for dessert. Playing keno and canasta, with the cousins before and after dinner.
