pretty damn good.  Interesting contrast to the buttermilk 
lemon cake recipe I have been making all along

2 t    baking powder         eggs one at a time stirring between

1/2 lb butter                sifted dry ingredients in 3 parts
2 c    sugar                 and milk in two parts, keeping batter
4      eggs                  smooth.  Stir in lemon rind and bake
