This recipe must have came from my Great Grandmother Bernice. I love the history in picking each card. My Aunt Sonni mentioned a lot of these recipes came from the "church ladies". My Grandma Bernice was a hoot!! She lived in California, and we loved to visit her! We watched her put white powder all over her face, bright lipstick and wear her huge rings and jewelry. She would have been in style now with the chunky jewels!

When I think of cake, I do not like to think of fruit with it. Frosting is my only way! However when searching for pictures of an Upside Down Cake I saw a lot of them with raspberries, blueberries, rhubarb and this one with cherries, that I could do. I hope to make a lot of these recipes with Lily in the near future. Right now I am focused on just getting them on the blog to share :)!!
