    2 teaspoons baking soda

    Combine buttermilk and baking soda; set aside. Sift together
    flour, salt, and spices; set aside.
    Cream butter, sugar, and vanilla until light and fluffy. Add
    the eggs one at a time, beating well and scraping the bowl
    after each addition. To the butter mixture, add half the flour
    mixture and mix until combined. Add half the buttermilk
    mixture and mix until combined. Add the rest of the flour
    mixture and mix; then add the rest of the buttermilk and mix.
    Scrape the bowl and mix well.

    Bake 25 to 30 minutes, until a tester inserted in the center
    comes out clean. Place pans on

    wire racks to cool.
