If you’re not ready for Christmas… why not? The stores are already starting to prepare. Get ready for the slow building of holiday music as you shop, get ready for the discount Christmas cards to be out ready for you to pick up. Get ready for the school children to swing by our door and ask you to help them raze funds for a school camp, class projects, or to pay for facial tissues because the schoolz no longer provide those. Get ready for long(er) lines at the stores. And most of all, get ready to pass around the Fruit Cake.
Although it is rumored that some readers of this blog like fruit cake. And so now I pass on the challenge to my sister: make a fruitcake that isn’t nasty.
Does Heidi’s Stollen count as fruit cake? I guess not, really, as it is a yeast bread – but it does have lots of dried fruit and boy, is it good!
I accept! However, I think that German stollen is fruit cake, but I will try to expand.
