Again, no fruit cake this year. I happen to be someone that like a good fruit cake. I don't know if all the jokes over the years helped kill the market or that while they were a staple of the holiday, the fact that they were "not perishable" in the same sense as most food item led to ridicules storage time or what? While I spent little time in the stores after Thanksgiving, I couldn't find them anywhere.

So what item of old tradition for the holidays do you miss or what didn't you get that you looked forward to this year?
