COCONUT PINEAPPLE CAKE
This is a bit labor intensive and growing up, this was my sister's cake to bake. One day she was transporting the cake from our temporary home to our "soon to be new home" and the cake began to slide off the seat. My sister saved the cake but wreacked Dad's car. I'll never eat this cake without appreciating her tears and Dad's...
