Apricot Nectar Cake

 My mother would make this cake when family would come to town.  It has mostly a lemon flavor, very moist and oh so good.  It is better served at room temp and not warm. I hope you enjoy this cake as much as we do....

    Sherry,

    I'm visiting from you via your daughter's blog, "An Original Belle." :)

    I told her I would try this cake, even though I am not too found of apricots. After I make it, I will let you both know how I liked it.

    At any rate, I hope that you keep creating more creations to share on your blog. I enjoyed visiting you today. :)


    Blessings,
