I got the fruitcake last year from my 1o year old niece. Before Christmas she asked who I was going to give it to, so I told her I ate it. She replied, "No you didn't, because you'd be dead."

I don't think I will send you the fruitcake. It just isn't safe!

Hmmmm. good question. I've never eaten fruitcake old enough to have 'tree rings' or one that has gotten a life of its own, so I don't know.... But with all the preservatives, it probably is just fine. ;)

Hmm,
The real question might be do you like really, really old fruitcake?

I usually do not do these 'Writer's Corner' write-offs. But it is nice to find one that actually requires some serious writing rather than checking off a list of questions.

(Ignore my 'writing utensil' w/o...I was obviously off my meds that day..!!)


Anyway . . .my contribution for this one is here:

Great idea . . .let's make it a tradition in and of itself..!!

Maybe we just don't give birds enough credit. Perhaps they are smarter than we give them credit for. (grin)

Hi Scott,

Hum. I guess it depends on how much brandy they poured on it or in me (-: beforehand. Then again, my dad used to get a fruit cake that was so bad that even the birds wouldn't eat it when my mom broke it up and tossed it outside. We ended up having to collect old fruit cake pieces to put in the garbage can. That's one benefit of having lots of kids. They can be recruited for such duties.

Smiles, Cyndi

Cyndi,
There's nothing technically wrong with liking fruitcake I guess, but would you eat one that's 12 years old?

Thanks for the comment!

Alex,
You wrote, Obviously from the hair left behind, one on his reindeer recently went berserk and kicked out the left front headlight, fender, and the grille on one of my vehicles.

This makes me wonder why you would park on your roof. Hmm.
