"'Oh my,' she exclaims, her breath smoking the windowpane, 'it's fruitcake weather!'" 🎄 "Egg beaters whirl, spoons spin round n bowls of butter and sugar, vanilla sweetens the air, ginger spices it; melting, nose-tingling odors saturate the kitchen, suffuse the house, drift out to the world on puffs of chimney smoke. In four days our work is done. Thirty-one cakes, dampened with whiskey, bask in window sills and shelves." 🎄 Repost today because it was time for another reread of my favourite Christmas story. Capote is a short story master. A Christmas Memory is perfect: chilly and warm, rich and simple, delicious and nostalgic, hopeful and heartbreaking 💔😭. Do yourself a favor and (re)read it if you have 15 minutes. I'll post it in my stories today for you. 🎄 I couldn't obtain fruitcake here in small town Italy, and I'm terrible at baking, so I went with the Italian equivalent: pannettone. 🎄 (had trouble sharing IG posts for a while - catching up on old posts this into is from Dec 2020) #trumancapote #achristmasmemory #shortstories #pannettone #fruitcake #foodinbooks https://www.instagram.com/p/CJGKq-ngCck/?utm_medium=tumblr

You always end up with too many of them at the end of the holiday season. Which got me wondering: what's the traditional holiday "cake" where you are? ❄️ #trumancapote #achristmasmemory #shortstories #pannettone #fruitcake https://www.instagram.com/p/B57y4PkAq13/?igshid=3vs7pto78qo4
