+====== Fruitcake ======
+/* Description */
+I love fruitcake.  Most every year we'd receive one as gift and my father and I would enjoy every bit. I'm not sure if Mom or Andrea liked it, though.  This is a recipe my Mom got from Marveen Minish and had on file.  I don't know if Mom ever made it, but it's probably a good one.

+|**Preheat:** 350°|**Yield:** 4-5 small loaves||
+|**Prep:** 0:30|**Wait:** 0:00|**Cook:** 1:30|
+====== Ingredients ======
+  * 2 lbs Candied Dates
+  * 1 lb Mixed Candied Fruit (comes cut and pkgd for fruitcake)
+  * 4 x 8 oz packages Candied Cherries
+  * 2 x 8 oz packages Candied Pineapple
+  * 2-3 cups Pecans
+  * 2 cups Sugar
+  * 2 cups boiling Water
+  * 5 TBSP Shortening
+  * 3 cups Flour
+  * 1 tsp Baking Soda
+  * 2 tsp Cinnamon
+  * 1 tsp Cloves
+  * 1 tsp Salt
+====== Directions ======
+  - Place dates, sugar, water and shortening in saucepan. Simmer gently for 20 minutes.  COOL.
+  - Sift flour once before measuring.  Then sift flour, baking soda, cinnamon, cloves, and salt together. Stir into cooled mixture.
+  - Add mixed fruit, cherries, pineapple, and nuts.
+  - Bake in a well-greased 9x13 pan 1 1/2 hours @350.
+  - When cool, cut into 4 or 5 loaves and wrap well in waxed paper.
+====== Notes ======
+(Marveen) I do not cut anything before mixing, except the pineapple if it comes in rounds instead of chopped.  The original recipe emphasizes that the larger and whole pieces make a prettier cake.  The mixed fruit comes already cut.  The dates can be either the cut variety or whole; either way, they get mushy as the are simmered anyway. Enjoy!
