Brandied homemade fruit cakes, now that is something we do enjoy with ice cream, not hot like you may enjoy with custard or cream on top. Love tradition to send out cheer hope all the deliveries were made on time this year!

Always cheerful and delightful, a time of giving this morning we left some parcels out on the road above the house. My husband said he is sure they were waiting to see what the surprise would be today. Yes food and clothing in a country bereft with poverty, nothing should ever go to waste.

Something from South Africa to bring additional cheer.
