Living in the South, almost every evening meal is topped off by some kind of dessert. If you had cake, it's was
usually served with homemade pickles in a fancy little dish. When we had homecoming at my mom's church,
there were always a lot of cakes and just as many dishes of pickles, all homemade and sitting next to
the baker's cake. Christmas meant we would have a fruitcake that my mom had made. Yes, I said fruitcake,
and it was fabulous! I have her recipe but I have never been able to duplicate it. Even my husband said her
fruitcake was the best. It was baked in a large tube pan with a removable bottom and usually weighed close
to 10 pounds. She used grape juice as the liquid, never liquor or wine.
