Great Grandma Carr's Banana Nut Cake

I got this from my brother-in-law a couple of years ago. It is so delicious and is far superior to a prepared box mix. I am 57 yrs old so that tells you how old this recipe could be. :P *We don't usually keep buttermilk - so, I put a tbsp of vinegar in regular milk to sour it.
