"With the coming of summer I think of this luscious cake. It's a lemon poke cake but is unlike others posted to this site. The lemony interior is topped with a glaze (also lemony) for a taste experience that will refresh as it pleases. It is the perfect cake for spring and summer functions. This is an old recipe, it's true, and I thought I had lost it. But now that I've found it again, I'm putting it here for safekeeping!"
