This seemed super simple to make.  The topping is yummy and – as is often the case – we all had our fingers in the pan.  KC commented that he has a super recipe for a home baked pound cake and I guarantee that would make this even better.  That said, one comment we make each week – for the most part, and despite this week’s disappointments – is that the Mimi recipes are easy and good.

This week I have included a remembrance from Shirley (aka Mom) about the evening meal while she was growing up.  And I remember during my childhood, that we always had a treat before going to bed.  Sometimes – and most memorably – it was popcorn and apples or ice cream with hot fudge and peanuts –  while we watched Mash on Thursday night upstairs in that tiny TV room.  Dad in his lounger, Mom in the rocking chair and Jeff and I on the couch.  This recipe is “Good!” – as Mimi proclaims in the last line of the recipe… But also simple.  Most often, the best things are.
