ISO: Poppyseed Cake

Jodi, Omaha, NE

One of the first cakes I learned to make (mid 70's) was a simple poppyseed cake made with a lemon cake mix, poppyseeds, Crisco oil and quite a few eggs. I know it sounds crazy, but I'm trying to find the recipe and can't. Does anyone have or remember this recipe?
