Big buck coffee store alert.

my daughter and granddaughter love Starbucks lemon pound cake. 
 It is 2.50 a SLICE.  See above address.  I haven't priced the recipe out, but
my unofficial calculations are that you can make
an entire loaf for the cost of one slice if you do the target price thing.  

Target price has nothing to do with the store with the same name.

Even cheaper.  

We made the wanta be lemon pound cake.  It cost 4.52 for two loaves.  
Assuming 8 slices per loaf at 2.50 a slice total cost is 40.00 for the two loaves.  
Savings 35.48.   It took us 10 minutes to put it through the food processor.  
That's 212.88 cents an hour.
