Premium Member The Fruitcake
He was nuttier than a fruitcake, 
He ate dry fruits, and candied fruits.
Some thought he was a screwball.
But from the likes of things.
He was very normal.
At least, I thought he was.

After a day on the fishing boat.
We'd finally catch a fish or two.
Nothing new, just...

~Fruitcake Oh No! ~
 (Couplet)


 Fruitcake, oh no! I don't like
 I'd rather give it to Mike.

 Fruitcake tastes to me more than bad
 If you give me one I'd get very mad.

 Fruitcakes are not really fun you see
 So please don't send one...

Jack's Fruitcake

Jack slipped over a banana bread
His feet loafed of slices of lead
Poor sweet little gent
Upside down he went
For he ate the banana peel instead

Familiar cake it be
For gift to bring to thee
Forlorn it sits at tea
For none will taste but me

Fear not my special treat
Forget what others eat
For me you’re noncompete!...

Fabulous ice box ease
Fruit dried, sticky so sweet
Folded into Graham's
Famous brown cracker crumbs
Finely chopped nuts~yum! yum!
Famished come visit, stay
Fainthearted go away  

Use sweetened condensed milk as a binder
Place a sheet of waxed paper into the Graham Cracker box
place the mixed ingredients into the box...

Fruit laden circle cake
  filled with nuts and jellies
    full of flavor and spice
       fantastic with eggnog
    frequently requested
  for family and friends
fine finish by the fire.

Fruitcake Doorstops
if you have lived to see either
side of 30, you have been
offered a fruitcake---
it might have been round these
“holiday” times, when people
celebrate their fictional characters
that got the horrible religions 
rolling, or the
fictional meal that didn’t seem to
stop the genocide of this empire’s
native people---
perhaps, 
you might’ve...

(Dedication: For Janet Wee)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~



Glimpse a fond treat, glimpse a fine bake;
Reach with warm smile, reach with fine draft;
Add more to wheat, add fruits to stake;
Now passion styles, now purpose crafts.
Design a cake, design a voice;
Fruitcake appeals, fruitcake reveals;
Rich techniques make, rich liquor poise;
Urge brandy's will,...

Nobody Likes Fruitcake
Nobody Likes Fruitcake

By Elton Camp

Who would want a fruitcake as a gift
It would be far better to receive a fifth

Nobody is going to be at all thrilled
To get something with calories filled

Especially since it is hard and dry
To cut or bite it, you needn’t try...

Gummy Santa’s adorning
My fruitcake and dates
Inside with candied cherries, 
raisins, walnuts and
Oranges, floating 
Fondant red,
Bliss!...

Premium Member Nutty As a Fruitcake
When confused or excited,
Phil chatters inanely.
When he’s irked, he’s not placid;
He gestures insanely.

When he’s full of strange antics,
some folks won’t go near him.
He just gets on their last nerve--
no reason to fear him.

When he makes wild suggestions,
his family get surly,
and his friends are disparaging:
“Phil, don’t...

How To Make a Fruitcake
First you take a little child the younger ones are best
Sit them in a dark cold house, remove all signs of zest
Pack them full of stories all about the world outside 
Add a little fear and then you take away their pride
With individuality well and...
