When she made them, she would put all the ingredients in a big bowl and toss them with her hands.
Wll, when I was a little girl, I remember my Mom opening the package from her Mother and excitedly slicing the fruit cake. In one of the slices was a bandaid that had come off while Gma was mixing it and it got cooked in with the cake!
EEEEWWWWWWW!!!! Haven't touched a fruit cake since!! 
Oddly enough, it never stopped my Mom from enjoying her favorite holiday treat.  |
I understand..I have a similar story..LMAO
ok, the first Christmas me and my boyfriend was together, I always made butter cookies from scratch..So, I decided to make him some along with everyone else...I left the dough in the frige to long..so it was to hard to roll, while rolling it I broke a nail and lost it. Make a long story short, I made over 12 dozen cookies, and the nail ended up in his cookies...He won't eat any more of my cookies.
