More than welcome, GG. Christmas is just round the corner. I have my fruits soaked in rum for a couple of months now, all set to go. However, i always used dark rum but when i went to buy the rum, this jamaican sales girl told me her mother used the white one. When i looked at where the rum originated i noticed it did come from Jamaica. So is it white or dark , lets see when the cake comes out of the oven.Thanks for the reminder! I'd forgotten all about our September discussion re fruitcakes. I just put ingredients on my list. Nobody's going to eat it but me, but eat it I will

When DD and I were Walmarting yesterday, I looked for mincement and candied fruit. Nope. I dunno if it's too soon or if they simply don't carry either one anymore.
We're going to make a pass through Aldi this week, and I'll check there.
Gosh, @Senenity, I've never soaked the fruit. I wonder... I could be like the Cajun chef on public tv from years ago. He'd be generous with the wine in the dish he was preparing, then pour himself some, too! (One for the pot, one for the chef...) He was called the Ragin' Cajun.
