“Fruit: good. Cake: great. Fruitcake: nasty crap.” - Jim Gaffigan, comedian
I have to say I agree with Mr. Gaffigan’s appraisal of fruitcake, but not everybody does. Plenty of (misguided) people appreciate this holiday confection, including a group called The Society for the Protection and Preservation of Fruitcake (I promise I didn’t make them up!) I once found an ancient fruitcake in the bottom of my box of tree decorations that must have been at least fifteen years old - I don’t think they need any help with preservation! I mean, there’s no way those bits are actually fruit. You ever notice how it’s usually older people who make and give fruitcake? I suspect that what happens is they don’t have great eyesight, they can’t find their glasses while they’re baking and their decorative bowl of plastic fruit ends up in the batter.
Did you realize that brandy is often an important ingredient in fruitcake? I’m pretty sure it’s there so that if you eat enough and end up drunk, you don’t have to remember the fruitcake the next morning.
Ok, enough insulting fruitcake. Maybe some of you quilters actually like it. To each her own. Tell you what, if Aunt Camille sends me any fruitcake this year, I’ll forward it on to you. And whether you like fruitcake, hate fruitcake, or are, yourself, a bit of a fruitcake, you’ll love today’s Christmas-y, cake-y deal.
