WILLIAMSBURG ORANGE CAKE
This is a really nice tasting cake with a nice orange flavor but not overpoweringly so. It's traditionally a fall and winter cake when dates and currents are more plentiful. However the sunny orange flavor makes it good in the spring and summer too. In those month when dates are not around you can substitute small raisins.

OLD-FASHIONED PORK CAKE
This recipe is one that my Grandma Lewis would make when she had the ingredients on hand -- because the family lived deep in the mountains of West Virginia a quick trip to the store was not feasible especially during the winters months. My grandma was a terrific cook and never measured ingredients (old school of little bit of this, little bit of that) but it didn't matter because whatever she cooked always tasted good and filled you up! This recipe is one of my dad's favorites and I hope you like it, too!
