This wondeful pound cake, from my grandmother was a favorite growing up. Not too buttery or heavy, always perfect. Of course, Grandma made it. Subtle hint of lemon and vanilla, topped with Ice Cream and fresh peaches from her tree, life was good.

Pound cake has a special place in my heart! Every cook in my family made a pound cake, and it was a "must" to learn to make a good one...a good pound cake was the true "sign" of a good cook. And this pound cake recipe is a good sign. :)
