Personal Notes:
Oma had to go out one day and she needed Opa to make a cake for her while she was out. She wrote out the recipe and left it on the kitchen counter with the note "Jerry White Cake" written across the top. It got put away in the recipe box like that and has been known as Jerry White Cake ever since.
