     I dont want to sound too morbid or sappily sentimental, but my
father-in-law has lung cancer and he is comming out to San Deigo to
visit.  (What does this have to do with net.cooks you ask?)  It will be
his birthday while he is visiting; maybe his last.  We asked him what
kind of cake he wanted, and he said a maple cake.  The whole thing is
weird, becouse normally he would have said that he doesn't like cake that
much or that it didn't matter, but he said he wanted a maple cake.  It
turns out that his mother used to make him a maple cake for his birthday
when he was a kid. 

     We couldn't find a maple cake anywhere. It wasn't in JOC or Fanny
Farmer (our two standbyes).  We cant find it anywhere else.  DOes anyone
have a recipe?  I would appreciate it if you would send it to me via
mail since they will be here very soon.  Thanks a lot in advance.
