Great, another fruitcake lover. My mother buys fruitcakes for everyone in the family every year from the
Collin Street Bakery in Corsicana,TX. They make a great pecan fruitcake IMO. Fruitcake lovers, browse the site, look at the menu, and you'll be suprised at their clientele. I was.
Next: I can't wait for the candied yams, pea casserole, three bean salad, and all those "old" favorites. I grew up on that stuff, and as a kid I wasn't thrilled about it... but, as I just turned 41, and and as a bachelor who doesn't cook, (except for BBQ), I have come to look forward to all those recipes Grandma always cooked up. All the Grandparents are gone now, but we still do it every year, although it isn't the same as when Grandma cooked.
