This story was written by Cole Matthews. For some reason, it's listing me as the author. We're hoping to be able to get that fixed.

@Cole Matthews @aditus and I are posting a multi-author story, one chapter per day until Christmas. Cole uploaded a chapter today without any problem, but it looks like I'm the one who posted it, since I'm the one who created the story. Is this a glitch? Is there a way the author who uploads the chapter can be listed as the author? I uploaded the Prologue and Chapter 1, Cole uploaded Chapter 2.

The Fruitcake Shawn pulled the pan from the oven. He inhaled the smell of the dark brown confection deeply, enjoying the pungent, rich spices, and the heady, sweet fruit. He set the loaf pan on an antique iron trivet carefully designed with gaily painted ivy and poinsettia leaves, red and shades of green, intertwined pleasingly. The delicate, yet insistent, aroma of caramel filled the room. Carefully, he stirred the brandy, rum, and even more spices in the syrup in a saucier pot. H

All glory to the hypnotoad.... With the title of the story, I couldn't resist I look forward to checking it out. -

Well good homemade mac and cheese is magical What an awesome story

Homemade hot cocoa sounds delicious. I'm quite food-motivated myself. I watch a ton of Food Network shows. And I think you're right about preserving our culinary heritage. Cooking is a fundamental skill that a lot of people don't bother to learn. I had a college roommate that didn't know how to brown ground beef, and that was a while ago!

Welcome aboard! My mom did something similar for me and my brother. It's something I'll always treasure. I hope you find something to add to your collection.

We used to do the same thing... I'd help my mom and aunt and grandma and we'd end up with lots of different containers of cookies in the freezer. We stopped the tradition years ago, and unfortunately, every time I bring it up no one is interested. So we have new traditions instead. Thanks for reading and have a cookie for me.

I'm sorry to hear your family recipes were lost Many years ago, my mom copied our favorite family recipes into a book and also onto laminated recipe cards. I've had cookies similar to the ones you describe, and they're delicious. Thanks for reading and commenting.
