Be sure the starter is warm and very active. Cream the shortening and
sugar, add eggs one at a time, beating well. Add starter and buttermilk (
be nice and gentle with the starter). Sift and add dry ingredients, prunes
and nuts. Bake at 350 for abut 40 minutes in a well greased and floured
cake tin (pan) about 9 x 13.

NOTE: orange cream cheese icing is good on this. Use Dates instead of
prunes. Can make 2 1/2 dosen cupcakes instead of cake but bake them only
about 25 minutes Pat Dwigan
