I also wrote the timings and all of the steps.
I then lost the notebook, after only making the cake on my own twice. (More than likely it's somewhere in my house, but there are so many hiding places...and who knows, one of my kids might have needed a notebook for school and I accidentally gave it to one of them!)
I tried making it from memory. That was a disaster. I then called two of my dad's sisters, thinking they'd have grandma's recipe...to no avail. Apparently I was the only person in the entire family that my grandma trusted the recipe to...and I have lost it.  If I ever find that notebook I, not to mention my dad, will be ecstatic! | Have you ever tried hypnotism to help you remember?
