fruit cake...

Post by Kreddible Trout » December 27th, 2004, 6:12 pm

you know... i think fruit cake is a myth. I've only ever seen the stuff on the shelf at the grocery store. No one in my family has ever given one or got one as a gift. We've never had it on the dinner table. I've never eaten a slice. never seen a package of it opened. I think it was created by stand-up comedians and talk radio hosts for material.
Merry Decemberween.
