Banana Nut Cake, A Work of Art

My husband's Mom used to make him a Banana Nut Cake every year for his birthday. The only thing he has asked for his birthday this year is...you guessed it, a banana nut cake. I haven't baked a cake from scratch in 20 years! But, I love my husband and I miss his Mom almost as much as he does, so I spent the whole evening working on this cake.

I couldn't find Mom's recipe so I found one on line that was as close to her cake as possible. I think Paula Deen's recipe is the closest. Thanks Paula for helping me out.

I hope Vic likes it.

Maybe I'll paint this cake, but I don't think it will be around long enough.
