LOL
One day last Christmas the big niece phoned around 5 pm on a Saturday night
to say they were in the neighbourhood on a winery tour and wanted to stop
by and say hello.... and that they couldn't stay for dinner because they
were going to stop at the Manadarin (Chinese buffet) on the way home.....
not that I was going to invite them for dinner.

fruitcake. IMO, that is like sprinkling sugar on a slice of cake, or
dipping candies in syrup.
