My grandmother was famous for this cake. She lived in a small Southern town, and for her, to love you was to feed you. This cake always meant love. Anytime there was a funeral, an illness, a family reunion, or any special occasion, she would show up with her sour cream pound cake. When she passed away, everyone who spoke at her funeral mentioned this cake. For all those who requested the recipe...here it is!
