Booming Christmas and a Banging New Year

I know it's regional (hey, y'all don't build bonfires for Papa Noelle, either), but a lot more fireworks are bought and shot down here during Christmas season and New Year's eve, than around the Fourth of July.

You all do rum cake? That was pretty big back home.

Ate the last piece of a Kahlua rum cake today. This is not my wife's recipe, but it looks good:

Now, rum cakes get better as they sit. I had a boss years back, whose wife made the best rum cake you've ever had. She'd let that thing sit and pour a little more rum into it every so often. I ain't lyin', eat three pieces of Joyce's cake and you'd be above the legal limit to drive.
