1. fruit cake is intended for breakfast.
2. 'sup with wrapping paper? why don't they make the rolls shorter? wrapping paper is pretty much one giant waste of wrapping paper.
3. make this and your troubles go away:
"the smell of Christmas"
- 2-3 T. whole cloves
- 4-5 cinnamon sticks
- 1-2 T. whole allspice
- 1 whole nutmeg - if you can find it - chopped, or sprinkle a buncha ground nutmeg if you can't
- 1 piece vanilla bean - if you can find it - or, several drops of the liquid kind if you can't
- orange peel from 1-2 oranges
- combine all the above in a pan with a loose lid (i use foil). cover in water. put pan in 200-250 degree oven and EN.JOY.
- periodically add water as needed.
- you can brew this for 5 days and then you'll need a fresh batch.
- which means, this stuff lasts longer than fish or company coming to visit - which ben franklin said was 3 days, tops. :)
MERRY CHRISTMAS, EVERYONE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
