A Christmas miracle was under the tree this morning. After so many years of asking Santa for the Big Green Egg it has finally materialized and I am so happy. Ms. Goofy you are the best.

4000 MILES
Today, I hit the 4000 mile mark for riding my bicycle for the year 2022. I could not have done it without help. Thankyou to the best S.A.G Wagon driver ever; Ms. Goofy. I also want to thank my very special emotional support Monster; Rocky. This year I was fueled by pie and seasonal fruitcake.

BAKE SALE
The Women's Auxiliary of the Galileo Italian Club had a bake sale. This sale was to raise fund for parking lot improvements. This was an occasion to buy home made sweet treats and help the club. I went to the bank and made a withdrawal. It was for a good cause after all.
Because this was for a good cause, I made sure to buy a huge assortment of these delectable delights. I was in sweet shop heaven. It is just something special to see all the love that went into these treats. They did not disappoint.
I may have spent enough money to purchase my own parking spot. It was all for a good cause. That is what I keep telling myself. Yummylicious

I LOVE FRUITCAKE
I love fruitcake. There are haters but I do not care. This Madmeatgenius grew up in a fruitcake lovers house and experienced some of the most decadent delicious home made cakes one could imagine. This year I will not be baking my own fruitcake and have been in search of commercially made cakes.
The top cake was bought from the Dominican Sisters of San Jose. They make 1,500 cakes a year for their yearly craft fair. Believe it or not these cakes are very popular and sell out fast. I was lucky to get one. It is a traditional fruitcake with candied fruits, nuts and laced with brandy. It was most excellent.
The second cake is a steamed pudding more affectionally known as Figgy Pudding. Ms. Goofy brought it to me from the Dickens Faire. This cake was very moist and yummy. The instruction for servings suggested to soak in in rum for a couple of weeks. I passed because of my teetotaling lifestyle. (I was known to like my drink in the past but have gone 10 years with my new improved lifestyle). Stay tuned for more fruitcake acquisitions. *
* If you do not like Fruitcake; you will be in our thoughts and prayers. See you in January.
