I think this is an unwarranted, thinly-veiled attack on fruitcake. I'm offended! Especially when the very best fruitcakes come from Texas! Cryer Creek Kitchens/Collin Street Bakery in Corsicana, Texas--check 'em out! That is, if it's all right to plug a product in Johnny's world. If not, I apologize.
@JustaJeepGuy- Rest easy. Unlike most people, I am a member of the pro-fruitcake lobby. I love the stuff and I'm not joking. And Corsicana, Texas makes the best ones (I used to order Texas-shaped fruitcakes with cherries and walnuts and send them to business clients at Christmas. I would still if I had any freakin' clients).
Damn. Now I want fruitcake.
@Pete(Detroit)- See, this is the sort of ugly dessert prejudice which sets back the cause of candied fruit by 20 years.
I don't know Stilton. The old gal looks like a kindly grandma, but she's creeping me out.
ReplyDelete@TrickyRicky- I think she means well, but has issues. To put it mildly.

ReplyDeleteJeep, so far as I'm concerned, you can plug fruitcakes all day - one of the few things that will stand up to a barrage of .45
ReplyDeleteJust sayin'...

@Stilt, I have converted people to fruitcake lovers with cakes from that place in Corsicana. They're that good!
ReplyDelete@Pete, "plug fruitcakes"...."barrage of.45" I love a good crypto-pun!
