OMG, mom gave me some key lime curd. Just tried it. It is SO GOOD. And I don't really do spreads. Hell, I'll eat this stuff with a spoon. Perfect balance of sweet and tart.
We knocked 'em deader!

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.
The cake batter broke my spatula. That's how thick it is. First batch in the oven.
I've never watched House before, so I didn't know that one of my very favorite songs is the theme song.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart
So you switched it out for something that tastes less good? Crafty.
Switched it for something that tastes better (at least to somebody) initially. Nobody bothered to change the cake saving tradition however.
I think I just caught the House love. He doubts ALL children with cancer are that brave, surely some of them are whiny little jerks.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Typical lack of exit strategy.

I loved my grandmother's fruitcake and I think I like some from a bakery in Texas, Corsicana I think. I've never had fruitcake with alcohol though.
It's my new bedtime, so I'm off.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
I liked ita's mother's fruitcake, but it didn't like me.

A really good fruitcake is like Anne's. Moist and crumbly, more fruit than cake and booze soaked but not overwhelmingly booze flavored. My mother's was like that, sigh. I've never tried making fruitcake for fear it would be one of those inedible dry blocks mentioned upthread. Ugh.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

That's the place I linked to, above.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Hey Sail - have you ever tried the fruitcakes at Nature's Bakery? I worked there for a year, and we ended up with a whole bunck of extra fruitcakes. They were so nummy! i think I had a fruitcake every couple of days for a month or so....

No, I may have to search them out, though, if they're that good. The real problem is finding the good ones. References help!
