Ha! I don't want to know what the shipping would be to the UK.

Just makes me mad, I looked at them when I was home and almost brought some back. I couldn't remember why I needed them.

doh!

Just buy a lot of them so you only pay the shipping once. I'm sure they last a few years, at least. lol

The operative words. lol

We don’t mourn artists because we knew them. We mourn them because they helped us know ourselves.

It doesn't work that way, will go by weight. Trust me, I spend lots of money shipping to the US and my mom spends lots shipping to the UK.

International shipping is a bitch!

I once smelled a fruitcake that had a scent of sweaty feet. I was 7, and that was a wrap. Fruitcake was not my friend. Around 14, I gave it a try again. UGH. Jellybeans and nuts and Lord knows what else....I spit that stuff right into a plant....

lurking I hope my aunt isn't on the .org.......she would kick my butt if she knew I'm the reason her plant doesn't grow right anymore.

Eh, I'm all for any other kind of cake except for that stuff. But I'm usually attatched to the nut tray, anyway. I loooove roasted holiday nuts. love

Whoa. Weird. I wonder if it's real bananas or a "banana flavored" paste? I love chocolate and bananas, though. drool Definitely a favorite.

We need to get Funkcreep in this thread. He doesn't like balls, evidently.

the Collin Streett Bakery in Texas makes the Deluxe Fruitcake. It's the best ever! It's expensive but worth every penny once you taste it. You'll be hooked, trust me!

OMG, THANK YOU! i was talking to my mom about the fruitcake i used to order back in the late 90s, when i was more into the xmas spirit, and i couldn't for the life of me remember the name of the company.

mommy loves her fruitcake. she was so disappointed last year when safeway ran out. i wouldn't say i love it the way she does, but i grew up with it and look forward to having some every year. i remember i got this collin street cake to convince a friend who said he hated fruitcake that this one would change his mind.

it didn't. (he's a freak.)
