Frosting ~and~ Fruit!

Ask your British husband what kind of birthday cake he wants,
and he might just answer: Christmas Cake! Thinking maybe chocolate bundt cake or black currant crumble, I called out, "Do you want frosting or fruit?" But upon hearing those words, Gerry immediately envisioned candied cherries, marzipan, and royal icing, and answered, "I want frosting and fruit!"

You know, Christmas Cake! Well, what the heck! We decided that 2020 is the year for mixing up the holidays and seasonal celebrations however we feel like! So for the next few days, it was Christmas Cake for breakfast, lunch, and dinner.
As everyone keeps reminding us:
Life is short! Eat dessert first!

If you care for a slice of cheese on the side,
how about this cute little guy?!

More cute foods: I picked these novelty cookies
up for a few pennies in the January sales and
put them away for next year (long shelf life).
On the other hand, with the coronavirus cramping
our style in so many other frustrating ways,
maybe we should just go ahead and enjoy them now.

No point waiting for the holidays! Right?
Thanks Clare!

P.S.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY GERRY!
