    When I was young I lived next door to a boy named David. We were the same age, had similar interests and spent a lot of time together growing up. His mother used to make this cake all of the time.

    Years later, this cake came up in a conversation with my mother and I could not believe she still had the recipe, hand written by David's mother herself!  Luckily, my mother had asked her for the recipe way back when. When I read it I couldn't believe how easy it was to make!

    You have so many serving options with this Ladyfinger Lemon Cake!  My favorites are raspberries and whipped cream, as you can see!  I am excited to hear what you choose to serve with your cake, if anything at all!  Either way, you will not be disappointed!
