I had to laugh at the dried fruit plate your "shared" grandmother always sent you to start off the holidays. Don't you just love it? My parents always sent everyone in our family a mail-order fruit cake (it really was good -- honest) from the Collins Street Bakery in Texas. My husband always joked about how Christmas can now begin because the fruitcakes had arrived. I don't know why, but for years I kept the Christmas tins the cakes came in. Now that my mother is gone, we don't receive fruitcake anymore. You never know how much you miss something until it's gone.
