We celebrated the New Year by having 'Christmas' with La, who was now home from CA, and my parents. Though he threatened to keep his fruitcake from Nana all to himself, in the end Dad shared it with us! :)And for the groans I just heard from those who read 'fruitcake' and thought 'yuck', erase all previous associations with fruitcake from your mind. I have never met another fruitcake quite like my Nana's. Hers is amazing! Very very different from those sticky, gooey things called fruitcake. This one is a whole process--you make it months in advance and let it age gracefully, all wrapped up and sealed tightly. And it weighs a ton!
...And speaking of fruitcake, I think we just might need to pop over to my parents for some coffee and more fruitcake.
