It Is Better to Give than Recieve

So says the adage,

YET

Getting isn't so bad after all!

Look What Santa Brought!

You just cant fake it folks, it WAS that GOOD! It is not too sweet or too strong. SO chock full of nuts and fruit!!!

It is SO good, it is almost gone and it has only been a few days! Yikes no weighing for me this week.

Thank you so much, Denise! You are truly one of the most unselfish, caring and fun people that I have known. 🎄 🎅 🎁

hmmm, that look so yummy.
keeping the Cristmast blessing running. : )

It was very tasty, thank you!

That was very sweet of Denise. Looks so yummy! Had to giggle at the Geraldo and the empty vault of Al Capone reference lol...Yeah I am getting up there in age too lol...

I looked it up and it was 1986...Yikes LOL

That actually looks good and I've never tried fruitcake because I thought it looked gross. The video was great.

Hey thanks man!

That is one sweet gift! You look like a happy man. :)

Oh yes I am easily amused lol. A homemade treat is a sure winner in my book lol.

You guys are such a lovely couple and I can feel how much you love each other and how you seem to have fun with each other. The best kind of love is also that built on friendship and you really seem to have an amazing friendship as well ! Merry Xmas to you both :)

Thank you so much, Dan. I am glad you can see what a great friendship looks like. I wouldn't trade his friendship for anything. He is one of the good guys. That is why he got a fruitcake (along with a few others) I love putting a smile on people's faces.

I would send another if I thought it would keep it there. :) For the record, I love to banter with the old man. He is an awesome banter-er. Merry Christmas to you and the Mrs!!!

Var inte galen. Tack. God jul och gott nytt år!

Haha wow you know some Swedish ! Impressive hehe

It's fun to banter, and I think humor is extremely important in a relationship, because a lot of things can change but a good joke never does hehe

Ett språk är aldrig nog.

I couldn't agree more ! Even though Swedish is not the most widely spoken language haha but you can also use it and communicate with Norwegian Danish and some Finlanders as well

I know. I lived in Holland and spent much time traversing up there. Although not widely spoken, Swedish and Norwegian were what came easiest to me.

You are always welcome! :)

I love sending fun things to people and you were on my good list. Santa's elf knows what you like. Glad that it arrived and you liked it. I would skip that weigh in this week! :)

Merry Christmas to you!

I'm so glad Santa finally brought it to you!! :D

So sweet of her to send to you and you surer seemed to be enjoying it ;)

Wow, that looks like one impressive fruit cake Paul - I bet it doesn't last very long though!

That is a very special gift and one that not many enjoy.... I however love fruitcake. Merry Christmas

What a nice gift! I really like fruitcake too especially when it is homemade. Merry Christmas!

Never underestimate the power of a personal elf, it can change your life! ;)

Love it, 'goodness overload'. And it sure does look like it. Talk about a treat. Put that in the toaster oven, and hello true joy, goodbye dietary restrictions (which should be out the window anyway, IT'S THE HOLIDAYS". ) That was very nice of DW, and I'm sure it was fun to get. Hope you are having a grand holiday so far, it looks to be so. With more to come. Happy Day today.

OMGGGG... lol - that's sooo yummilicioussss.... 😋😆

Merry Christmas 🎄 and a Happy New Year!! ✨😊

It is always nice to get a fruitcake in the mail.
