Oh the tales of the fruitcake......


Its to cold to go out today big wind chill
I was going to make a fruitcake,
but instead sent the hubster to buy one
My mother always made her fruitcakes early
in the month, then wrapped them up and stored
them in the fridge until it was time to
eat them.  I love fruitcake, but really
its cheaper and less stress just to
buy them.

  6. Lovely angel painting.
    So many people don't like fruitcake and make jokes about it but I like it. I've never tried to make one though. My grandma used to make them way ahead of time and she soaked them in rum, I think.

  9. I enjoy fruitcake, too, but I am the only one in my family that does so I usually do without. Your angel has such a loving heart!
