TT-(Moderator) 1,131 #28 Posted December 13, 2013 Aside from being very dense, fruitcake has a very low moisture content and an excellent absorption ability. The key is to soak it in liquor for 1/2 hour before consumption. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

squonk 41,071 #30 Posted December 13, 2013 My wife years ago helped out an old lady. The lady gave her a fruitcake at Christmas. We didn't want it but my wife didn't want to throw it out. I figured I would have a little fun with it. At work was a guy who was a complete slob who drove a big old late 60's Caddy. The inside of his car was a mess. The amount of stuff in it would have filled 2 full size p/u trucks. I took that fruitcake and buried it inside the Caddy figuring it would be there for eternity like a cornerstone of a building. About a week later he comes in and says " I don't know who put that fruitcake in my car but it was great!!!" I found the only person in the world who likes fruitcake! 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

JC 1965 1,530 #33 Posted December 14, 2013 I never did like Christmas being replaced by an X. Thanks for your post Terry and thanks for bringing this to everyone's attention. Merry Christmas to all !! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TT-(Moderator) 1,131 #34 Posted December 25, 2018 Been seeing a lot of that letter "X" lately...... Seemed like a good time to resurrect this post. 2 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ClassicTractorProfessor 5,314 #35 Posted December 25, 2018 This was long before my time here at RedSquare, thanks for resurrecting this old thread Terry. This has always drove me nuts, and I can promise you my X is the last thing I want to deal with this Christmas . Also, maybe I'm a little weird, but y'all can send all those unwanted fruitcakes to me and I will be glad to properly dispose of them for you To all of my friends here at RedSquare, I wish you and your families all a very MERRY CHRISTMAS 1 1 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You know Terry, I know you have a real job again and don't spend a lot of time here these days. But it seems like you do show up pretty regularly around the holidays. Are you...

I was just able to start Christmas shopping a lot earlier this year - which is when I normally get reminded of this "historic" post. P.S.> Hard to believe that I've been at that same "real job" 11 years this past August! 4 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Pullstart 62,837 #41 Posted December 17, 2019 Merry Christmas everyone! I love to annoy the girls and sing loud and bad with that Happy Holiday song by Bing Crosby... but otherwise I think Christmas should never be replaced by the word holiday.... Holiday cakes? Holiday parties? Nope. They’re here for the Christmas Season. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
