and "fruitcake" as my search terms and am copying and pasting just the
recipe part here: <snip recipe>

Sandy responded:
> Thanks, Carol! This recipe sounds yummy, and it will make great
gifts for the people I work with. I work at a *major* grocery store
where the ingredients are available all year round, albeit on a
limited basis. If we wind up on strike  next week, which is looking
likely, I will have time to start some of my holiday baking.

Carol again:
You're welcome. I generally make mine around Thanksgiving (November 22
this year) and let it age for awhile in the refrigerator. I also send
some to friends and relatives as Christmas gifts.

Good luck with your strike (I mean, I hope it results in whatever
benefits or pay raises the employees are striking to obtain).

Carol, who has so far bought only the golden raisins and will have to
buy another box because she's been nibbling on them
