Preheat oven to 350°.

Lightly grease and flour a 4-1\2 by 8-1\2 by 3- inch loaf pan. Any loaf pan other then this would work as well.

Sift flour and baking powder together; set aside.

Cream butter and sugar together until light, fluffy and a pale ivory color. Add eggs one at a time.

Fold in flour and immediately pour into loaf pan. Bake until golden brown and a wooden skewer come out clean, about 25 to 30 minutes.

Cool for 10 minutes, then put came onto a wire rack to cool completely.

Serve with fresh fruit or ice cream. Enjoy! ^^
