It was a full-length sing-along cartoon from the 1930s/40s that used to show at the movies, when I was a kid. Of course, they left off the last of the lyrics - not appropriate for children.
They also inflicted it on us in the music program in elementary school. (Again, the censored version.)
If anyone makes the White Mountain Cake from the PDF I posted, the Daughter made it today and the liquids amount in the recipe seemed to be off. It said 1/2 cup of milk (I believe). That barely made it into a stiff cookie dough. I had got dessicated coconut from Sully's and re-hydrated it. After squeezing out the water she had nice fluffy coconut to use, and coconut-flavored water - she added a bit at a time until the batter was less "cookie" and more "cake". Also, the icing was just barely enough for a three-layer cake. Daughter says she'll increase the ingredients for the boiled icing next time, so that she can fill in around the sides a bit better to make the layers invisible. She also cut way back on the amount of coconut in the layers, as it wasn't sweetened and it seemed as if it would be a weird texture thing to have 3/4 of a cup in each layer - went with less than 1/2 and it seemed good. As it was, that cake came out reeeeally nice looking. Kind of like a Hostess Sno Ball, but with white cake inside. I hope she saves me a slice. She also made an orange and spiced dark chocolate chiffon cake as well. Both for an event at the Uni. That one smelled amazing. I doubt I'll see a leftover of that! She made it in a traditional bundt pan, then dusted it with powdered sugar, and then dusted it with some silvery sparkly stuff she got at Waitrose. The overall effect was that it looked like the cake had been snowed on. Really kinda neat!
