I like a good fruitcake
haha! me too!
joking aside, i also spent a lot of time around guys that made them for sale out of their shop up north. many different kinds. they had several 55 food safe drums soaking fruits all the time. the guys i hung out with are now passed away but their monastery still goes on. i met them when they were just starting out before they had even opened up for business. eventually i determined that i was not at all religious or able to live under someone else's authority (what it would have taken to join them). glad i did not join and then later realize those things, but it was all interesting and they remained good friends even after i did not join them - i give them much credit for that and miss them to this day.
