"My mother's recipe. Much lighter, easier to make, and neater to serve than traditional fruitcake, but still festive."

Fannie Farmer is my favorite GENERAL cookbook. I also like all the Moosewood series and Helen Brown's West Coast Cookbook. Theoretically, I'm retired, but I do a lot of volunteer work for the League of Women Voters.
