Fruitcake – Friend or Foe?

December 14 - Fruitcake – Friend or Foe?
Did you like fruitcake? Did your family receive fruitcakes?
Have you ever re-gifted fruitcake?
Have you ever devised creative uses for fruitcake?

We have received a Fruitcake or two over the years. We did re-gift them, we took them to Mom's. I have no creative uses for them but I'm looking forward to seeing what everyone else came up with.

Not having much to say about Fruit Cakes myself, check out the Independence Fruit Cake Festival. Don't miss their Fruit Cake Sayings including this one from Johnny Carson

"There is only one fruitcake in the entire world,
and people keep sending it to each other."
Johnny Carson

They will also be opening last year's time capsule:

PLUS: The Fruitcake Time Capsule from last year's Festival will be opened. The Fruitcake King will select an official taster. Then the Fruitcake Time Capsule will be sealed for all Eternity (or until the next Festival - whichever comes first).

And finally, my favorites, the Fruitcake cartoons.
