Your last baking of 2014 was obviously a big success! That fruit cake looks delicious! :-) I hope you'll be able to experiment with marzipan and icing next Christmas.

I'm glad the past weekend was so much fun! Your mother-in-law's 60th birthday sounds fabulous! That cake is wonderful! And it's great that you were able to spend the night at Baby Mel's and spend some time with other members of the family. :-)
