Fruitcake and Friendship - two gifts that last a lifetime
Thank you for your friendship and continuing support of My Carolina Kitchen.
I will be taking a little time off because my back has been giving me worse fits than normal for the past month and I have orders to take it easy for a while. I’ll see you after the first of the new year.
Merry Christmas, Happy Holidays, and Best Wishes for the New Year

Sam, I love that card! And I can't believe that a fruitcake could weigh 8,000 pounds! What kind of oven did they use??? And even better, who ate it??? ;-)
ReplyDeleteI am so sorry that you are having back issues, and I pray you will feel much better soon. I also wish you and Meakin a very Merry Christmas! Sending all my love along with best wishes...

One always hopes friendship outlasts any fruitcake! ;-)

ReplyDeleteI hope you have a wonderful Christmas and a Healthy New Year. Thank you for your visit to my blog recently! Also, thank you for your book ideas in the last post. Take good care of your back!
ReplyDeleteHello Sam
ReplyDeleteIt seems to me fruitcake was cherished more in the olden days when treats were few and far between, before there were so many other choices. I still enjoy it in small doses so long as it consists of "more batter and nuts" and less candied fruit.
Wishing you a happy holiday and much health. Enjoy visiting your blog and getting inspired by your recipes!

That is funny :)
ReplyDeleteSo sorry to hear about your back. Take it easy and best wishes for a very Merry Christmas and a Happy and Healthy New Year!
This post title definitely caught my eye. I am married to a lover of all things fruitcake.
ReplyDeleteMerry Christmas to you and all you hold dear, Sam.♥ Take care of yourself.
That back of yours needs TLC. A chiropractor put me on to some new exercises about 5 years back and I never miss a day. He has worked a small miracle on me. Take care and have a good Christmas. Diane and Nigel.
ReplyDeleteHope you continue blogging for many years. Merry Christmas!
ReplyDeleteMerry Christmas, Sam. We will enjoy your old posts while you are away.
ReplyDeleteHope you're feeling better, and you had a lovely Christmas, Sam! Good health and happiness for the New Year!
ReplyDeleteUgh, back problems are not to be messed with...glad you're taking some time off. Hope you had a marvelous Christmas, Sam!
ReplyDeleteMerry Christmas, Sam! Wishing you all good things for 2014. I've been in back therapy on and off since June. It's a bear. Take good care of yourself and allow yourself to be spoiled!
ReplyDeleteI hope that your Christmas was delicious and that your back is better soon! (I used to make very good fruitcakes with dried fruits (papaya, figs, pineapple, etc) pecans and rum. They were really tasty (and I don't normally like fruitcake) but they were expensive and time-consuming and when I heard one too many fruitcake jokes, I abandoned what had been a holiday tradition.)
ReplyDeleteThat's a LOT of fruit cake! I wouldn't mind a slice, but I don't think I can manage a whole one ;)
ReplyDeleteBummer! Take good care and we will be here when you are better.
ReplyDeleteDear Sam
ReplyDeleteWishing you a very Happy Christmas season and good health and joy in 2014. Thanks for your blog and for your comments, I love hearing from you.
Sending prayers for complete healing of your back
