Thanks for commenting!<br /><br />@ Rita: you're welcome. This was probably my very first experience with cake as a child, and oh, the scent of it the other day really brought back a lot of warm, fuzzy feelings. :)Wandering Coyotehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01478039463695542535noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10509532.post-41058268850353326562012-04-08T07:44:48.392-07:002012-04-08T07:44:48.392-07:00I had that book and remember making this cake; tha...I had that book and remember making this cake; thanks for bringing it back.<br />RitaRitahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03791201457372887378noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10509532.post-69573146442145530582012-04-07T07:43:44.124-07:002012-04-07T07:43:44.124-07:00Sometimes, the classics are still the best!

I'm going to try this later this month and take to work (perhaps adding a little lemon zest/juice). I can imagine this also being great with a flavoured whipped cream dolloped on top! <br /><br />Looking forward to this cooking adventure! Our go to cookbook growing up was mom's dogeared copy of the Five Roses Flour cookbook...which she still has as well. Some of it is outrageous but most of the recipes are simple but practically no fail. I'm hoping she eventually passes it on to me!Karenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11066059792352397198noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10509532.post-1600309886317397382012-04-04T13:42:56.436-07:002012-04-04T13:42:56.436-07:00Big Red is STILL my go-to Favourite cookbook.
