It's the best way to get your butter to whip up nice and creamy, she explained with a twinkle in her eye. For a brief moment, Grandma's hand mixer drowned out the people talking on the Ozzie and Harriet episode. The laugh track continued to rise over the whir of the appliance, but Davy was only dimly aware of what was going on in the story anyway.

Grandma had a special stepstool that could also be used as a chair. It was a shiny mint green color. Climbing up onto it, he squeezed his hands between his knees as he watched his grandmother transform the butter and sugar into a fluffy mountain. Then, one by one, she expertly cracked the eggs with one hand, dropping them into the mix. A few more ingredients, then the flour, bit by bit.

And the batter was ready to go into the pans. Davy leaned on the oilcloth-covered table while Grandma Hattie poured the batter evenly into two identical loaf pans. Her expert eye knew just how to divide it evenly. Somehow, they came out exactly the same. Looking up at Davy with a smile, she winked at him. Perfect, Grandma, he said with admiration.

He stood back as she pulled out the door to the big, wide stove and deposited the loaf pans inside. Then she set the metal kitchen timer for an hour and gently closed the oven again. She would check on the pound cakes after 60 minutes to see if they were done. Turning around, she noticed there was a new arrival in the kitchen. Strolling in the open kitchen door was Grandma's orange cat, Buster.

He was an enormous and goofy sort of fella who always accepted a few pats from any kind of visitor. Davy eagerly slid off the chair by the oven and sat down in the warm sunshine on the linoleum to stroke his head. Buster had obviously been entertaining himself outside. He had a few sticky burrs and twigs nestled in his fur.

Davy gently worked them free and tossed them out the door beyond the steps. Buster licked Davy's hand in return, running his pink sandpaper tongue over his thumb. But even Davy's attentions couldn't distract Buster from what Grandma was doing. She had pulled a saucer from the open shelving on the wall and was filling it with creamy milk from the refrigerator.

Buster eagerly began lapping it up as soon as she placed it in the corner, away from the stove. Davy knew that was because Grandma couldn't tolerate cats being underfoot while she was working in the kitchen. Davy stayed in his spot on the floor, running his hand over the smoothness. The summer sunshine was so warm and it made him feel just a little bit drowsy.
