Sweet Fruitcake!



SWEET FRUITCAKE!

I'd rather BE a Fruitcake, than just eat one.
You can recognise a Fruitcake when you meet one.
A Fruitcake's slightly dotty,
In fact a Fruitcake's potty,
Even though you very often meet a sweet one!


A human Fruitcake sees life slightly dented,
Sort of curly at the edges and fermented.
A Fruitcake is quite loopy,
But rarely sad and droopy,
And it's odd the way a Fruitcake seems contented.


So spurn those fruitcakes filled with nuts and butter,
Though they make your greedy heart go all a-flutter.
Concentrate on human kind
And I'm certain that you'll find,
That you're better off with a crazy living Nutter!

That is one thing we didn't receive this year, a Fruitcake. I love the ones that come from some bakery in Texas. They are loaded with good fruits and nuts. Sometimes ones that you pick up cheap in a grocery have very few nuts and the fruits are almost bitter. Hickory Farms also has a good Fruitcake.

Happy New Year.

Here's hoping you can share some fruitcake and a glass of champagne with Abe!

That really does look like a good fruit cake! I'm a bit over-done on chocolatey, sugary things right now.

My husband is the fruit cake lover here.
He always insists on getting one every Christmas.
