[Sca-cooks] Re: Favorite fruitcakes

[Huette von Ahrens]

Well, all I can say is the old adage, "There is no
accounting for taste, said the old lady who kissed the
cow."

Me, I love candied fruit, especially glace cherries.
And I adore most fruit cakes, with the exception of a
persimmon fruit cake my mother occasionally makes.  It
is way too dry and awful tasting.  But then I really
don't like persimmons either.
