Great Granny's pound cake

Tonight at YW Jenna is supposed to bring something passed down from an ancestor. Just recently we got a copy of my Great Granny's pound cake recipe so we just made it and put in the oven. I remember eating it when I was little and thinking it was heaven on earth! I'm a little sad that I won't get any of this one! It brought back tons of memories like first Sundays at Granny and Pa's, playing ghost in the graveyard and thinking Bill, Nate, Danny and David were the scariest people alive. I never could get up the nerve to go to the front of Great Granny's house by myself! I remember the big fires Pa used to build and how fun it was to run up, throw in some leaves to listen to them crackle and run off again. All this from a pound cake! I guess the weekend I just spent alone with my family helped a little. Speaking of that.....I had a great time. It was kind of a family drama that I won't get into on here, but it was a good kind of drama. And it really sparked some good memories. Maybe the pound cake memories are just icnig on the cake!
