Conversation 28
Hello Peeps time for a new Conversation Thread. This is number 28 out of the
series. I created and started this thread going on 11 years. 😎🎈
I will change it often from now on. This is just a knock around
thread about things in life. My life and others. I am an avid Heidi
Daus Collector, former singer, model and so on. I do this thread because
I enjoy what I do. I love fashion and music and HSN is a little of both.
I cover a lot of music and fashion on this thread. ✨😎
I am going to wish Happy Holidays to all the Peeps out there and please
stay safe. 🌹✨😎

NATIONAL FRUITCAKE DAY
Across the United States, fruitcake lovers young and old, commemorate National Fruitcake Day each year on December 27th.
Made with chopped candied or dried fruit, nuts, and spices and sometimes soaked in spirits, fruitcake has been a holiday gift-giving tradition for many years.
Dating back to ancient Rome, one of the earliest known recipes lists pomegranate seeds, pine nuts, and raisins mixed into barley mash. Records indicate that in the Middle Ages, makers added honey, spices, and preserved fruits. Recipes for fruitcakes vary from country to country, depending on available ingredients and tradition.
In the 16th century, two achievements crystallized to make fruitcakes more affordable and accessible. First, sugar from the American Colonies became abundant. Second, it was discovered that high concentrations of sugar could preserve fruits. These two actions resulted in excess candied fruit. Consequently, fruitcake making grew.

Good afternoon from the city of the losing team!😂 I was glad to see the second half was not close and I didn’t have to worry. PM looked good and our newspaper said the same.
I had a crazy Christmas eve and Christmas. Woke up Christmas eve to a dead refrigerator. Sooo, I had to run out with the last minute shoppers to find a new one. It was ordered and will be delivered on Saturday. I have various coolers on my deck with refrigerated items and bags of ice in my freezer. I know I will have to throw some meat/fish out but my freezer was loaded so trying to save what I can. That was an unexpected Christmas present, for sure!😫
Glad to hear you’re relaxing today. Hope you can enjoy your children for a few more days. It will be in the 50s here this weekend, I’ll take it.👍 Sending Christmas hugs to you and Poppy.🤗💖
