with coconut, tiny marshmellows, makes lots of yummy juice. . . )

Shhh don't tell anyone but I love fruit cake too. When I was a kid we made so many one year we had to mix it in a plastic baby bath tub. We should have known it was going to make a metric ton when all of the dry fruits and nuts were listed by the pound and there is something like 7 differnt items mixed in. Everybody got a fruit cake that year.

Cranberry Steamed Pudding. The recipe comes from my Great Aunt Edith. It turns out like a cake. I do steam it though, which is really very easy, just use a big kettle, put my metal streamer basket in the bottom with water up to the bottom of that, then set my covered cake pan on top. Steam for an hour. Let cool. My Mom used to use washed out metal cans from vegetables, cover the tops with wax paper rubber banded on. Serve with a hard sauce made from cream, sugar and vanilla or rum. It's rich and a blend of flavors from the molasses and cranberry- Yumm!

This year instead of the usual pumpkin pies, I decided to try something different since I hate making pie crust. I found a recipe called Pumpkin Gooey Butter Cake that I found on Food Network. It is a Paula Deen recipe so I knew it would be sinfully rich, and I was right. It was a huge hit last night at Dinner! It will now be served every year!
