sweets!

[cellio]

Every fall browngirl sends excellent fruitcakes -- yummy and beautifully decorated -- to some of her friends. She makes a bunch of different types and this year I knew she would be sending me a sampler. I figured that meant, oh, two or three random mini-fruitcakes, probably.

Today's mail brought a package. As I cut open the box I took in the lovely aroma, and when I got the paper off I saw three little fruitcakes. This seemed generous -- and then I saw that there was a second layer. Ooh.

Some of the icing qua art was damaged on its way to me, alas, but here, let me show you:







I'm looking forward to tasting them, but I don't want to cut into them just yet.

Thank you, browngirl!

Drat the post office. That's why I try to photograph them for her before they go into the post.

It's very pretty! She does nice work.

Heh. I'm torn between dismay at how squished they got and delight that so much of the decoration survived.

If I recall correctly the flavors are, clockwise from the top and ending in the center:

Honey
Chocolate
Jamaican style
White (no alcohol)
Another Chocolate
Sherry (in the middle)

And you are very welcome. :) *hugs you warmly*
