Personal Notes:
When we were little Jesse, Hamp, Shirley, Arlies and I use to love this cake, hot out of the oven, with a glass of ice cold milk. It was especially good when we came in from school, half starved (we thought!) and mother would have this cooked for us. As we got older, I cooked it a lot and it was almost as good as Mother's!
