MMMMM------------------------BUTTER SAUCE-----------------------------
     1 c  Sugar
   1/2 c  Butter; cubed
   1/4 c  Water
 1 1/2 ts Almond extract
 1 1/2 ts Vanilla extract

 In a large bowl, cream butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Add
 eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Beat in
 vanilla. Combine the flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt;
 add to creamed mixture alternately with buttermilk, beating well
 after each addition.

 Pour into a greased and floured 10" tube pan. Bake @ 350°F/175°C
 until a toothpick inserted in center comes out clean, 55 to
 70 minutes. Cool 10 minutes. Run a knife around edges and center
 tube of pan. Invert cake onto a wire rack over waxed paper.

 For sauce, combine the sugar, butter, and water in a small
 saucepan. Cook over medium heat just until butter is melted and
 sugar is dissolved. Remove from the heat; stir in extracts.

 Poke holes in the top of the warm cake; spoon 1/4 cup sauce over
 cake. Let stand until sauce is absorbed. Repeat twice. Poke holes
 into sides of cake; brush remaining sauce over sides. Cool
 completely.
