Perfectly delicious traditional pound cakes
By Olivia Fowler
For the Courier
ofowler@thepccourier. com
The reason I prefer traditional pound cake recipes is for the flavor, the richness, the moisture and the texture. And there is no substitute for real butter if you want to make a really good one.
If anyone can find a better chocolate pound cake recipe than my friend Jane’s, then send me a copy. It’s the very best.
My grandmama’s old fashioned pound cake recipe calls for a dozen eggs, real butter and a pound of
everything. There’s no substitute for anything, and it can easily feed 25 people.
And the lemon pound cake recipe is not run of the mill.
It’s near the top on the all-time favorites list.
If you’re cutting out sweets, don’t start until after you bake one of these cakes. You will not regret it.

SC news deserts, weak ethics laws allow corruption to run rampant
By Tony Bartelme, Glenn Smith, Joseph Cranney and Avery Wilks
The Post and Courier
news@thepccourier.com
Editor’s note: The Post and Courier of Charleston, the largest newspaper in the state of South Carolina, has partnered with other daily and weekly newspapers — including the Pickens County Courier — to help report on corruption and wasteful spending in communities around the Palmetto State.
1. LIGHT
Corruption festers when people aren’t looking, when the spotlight doesn’t shine. Without fair scrutiny, public officials with weak ethical backbones bend the rules. They help themselves to public money. They help their cronies instead of people they represent. Like a virus, corruption mushrooms, and so do the costs to you and
