1 1/2 cups butter
1 teaspoon vanilla
6 eggs1 teaspoon orange or lemon peel

1/2 teas salt
1/2 teas baking powder
1 cup sour cream or yogurt

Heat oven to 350, grease and flour 12 c bundt pan
combine sugar and butter, beat until fluffy
beat in vanilla, add eggs 1 at a time, beating until well blended
mix dry ingredients in separate bowl, add alternately with sour cream/yogurt
pour into pan, (very thick batter)
bake for 55-65 minutes (mine took a little longer, I think my oven is a little off)
remove from oven. place on cooling rack for 10 minutes.
Invert on plate..let cool for 1 hour

Cut up strawberries and sprinkle scant amount sugar over top.
refrigerate for 1/2 hour, mix strawberries and sugar (this makes a nice juice)
