Let me get this over with...
I was bad. I fell (or jumped) off the wagon and rolled down the hill. I also couldn't get on the computer for a few days, it took an unauthorized vacation. Had to call the cable company and have them "re-initialize" it, whatever that means. Basically, too many goodies that I ONLY get this time of year. And one it's really hard for me to throw away, as it takes a month to make it. I don't have any idea how many calories are in it. Beaucoup sugar, that's a certainty. It's brandied fruit cake, aka Friendship Cake because you get the "starter" from a friend who's made it. Though I found a recipe for it. But, it involves a lot of sugar every time you make it, (and a can of peaches with juice, pineapple with juice and marachino cherries with juice) and then you re-use 1½ cups for the next two cakes and add sugar again..(giving the remainder, usually 2 cups, to friends) I unfortunately adore this cake. I'm afraid I did justify it to myself that I only get it this time of year. And it's true, I never make it any other time of the year. (It's too good). I also had some fruit stuff I make, but I need to calculate the calories, it may not be too bad. It's made with whipping cream and sour cream. I felt like I needed to go ahead and post this, and climb back up the hill and track down that wagon!
