Notes: I always poured the vanilla extract and lemon extract into my whipping cream container. Be sure to always start with flour and end with flour. This is important. And always sift your flour. Measure the flour AFTER it has been sifted. Nana always said that was the secret to a good pound cake. And to remember to start with a cold oven.
