Got back from the
((Great Battle Of The Grocery Carts)) with enough stuff to mess up several fruitcakes.
The store didn't have any dried citron or what ever the stuff is called.
I remember a day the shelves were full of it.
Times and tastes have changed and not for the good sometimes.
But alas we marched ahead, 'My alter ego and I, and did what we could do and came out better anyway in my/our opinion.
Ended up getting way to much of.........
Dried apricots pineapples dates cherries and raisins.
Nuts.
Pecan halves, walnuts, Brazil nuts, filberts.
Molasses.
Steens cane syrup.
Brown sugar.
All purpose flour.
Stopped at the >>>>OTHER<<<< store and got good Kentucky Bourbon and dark rum.
My alter ego just had to have the dark rum for what ever reason, we shall see what he comes up with.
No I/We wont be mixing bourbon and rum.
