Creating a tablescape involves the art of layering. How many layers can you put on your table to create the perfect tablescape? Start with a tablecloth, then add place mats or chargers and a contrasting or matching table runner. Next, add the flatware, plates, and glasses. Ready for more? It's time for the centerpiece(s). Wait, did you remember to add candles?
You'd think that the table runner, just a strip of cloth, would not matter too much. It actually is a tablescape element that really ties the tablescape together. It adds color and dimension to the tablescape, and gives a look of fullness to the table.
For a custom look, make your own table runner. These DIY table runner ideas are easy to make, and are easy on the budget. Some of them don't even require sewing. Go on, make yourself a no-sew table runner! Then set your table like a designer.
Subway Art Table Runner: This hand-stenciled table runner looks funky and rustic, but keeps its symmetrical geometric appeal.
DIY Chevron Table Runner: This super-fashionable no-sew table runner requires only an iron and some Stitch Witchery.
Burlap Table Runner With Ruffle: Gussy up your table with this down-home burlap table runner.
Easy Muslin Table Runner: This DIY table runner is the ultimate in French countryside style.

Mobile Forensics in Internal Affairs Investigations
Just like social media posts, mobile device content can affect your credibility as a witness in court, and your usage habits can affect the public's perception of your professionalism. Strong policies, procedures, and training can help both officers and...
It's an unfortunate truth of the cell phone era that sometimes, employees will abuse their access to these devices. Whether their employer owns the device, or allows "bring your own device" (BYOD) to work, the convenience and ubiquity to an individual's day-to-day means that sometimes, devices will be used inappropriately.
In the law enforcement arena, several very recent news stories highlight this truth:
- Chicopee (Massachusetts) police officers were investigated after leaking crime-scene images of murder victim Amanda Plasse. The photos were taken with officers' personal mobile devices and shared with people outside the Chicopee Police Department.
- In Denver (Colorado), an officer was given a desk assignment after allegedly using his department-issued mobile device to sexually harass a woman.
- Connell (Washington)'s chief of police is under investigation for allegedly watching pornography on a city-issued cellphone.
- A Roseville (California) police officer used his cell phone to stalk and harass a woman.
How can you protect yourself and your agency in the event of these types of allegations?
Establish proactive and reactive policies
Whether you issue devices or allow BYOD, have policies that establish acceptable use. In either case, personal communications should not interfere with official duties. Require employees to password-protect their devices, and possibly even encrypt potentially sensitive data, such as text messages between officers and witnesses.
Clearly lay out what behavior will not be tolerated. This can be as obvious as pornography viewing on duty (or even off duty on a government-issued device), or as "gray" as limiting personal communications only to family emergencies.
In Connell as well as in many other communities, employees can use their city-issued phones for some personal use as long as it doesn't add to maintenance costs, and/or if they agree to pick up the tab for additional accrued costs. However, employees also have a limited expectation of privacy in the use of employer-issued devices, as the US Supreme Court ruled in City of Ontario v. Quon in 2010.
BYOD policies are a little different. These should stipulate:
- What devices are permitted. As government employees, everyone in your agency may need to adhere to any policy already in place for your city, county or state. Devices that are allowed can affect any support issues officers may have with connecting to work email or other internal resources, as well as potential security issues.
- What apps are permitted. Especially on Android devices, it's possible that some apps may not be as secure as you'd like them to be when a device is accessing your network.
A BYOD policy should also include language that allows the agency or government to search the employee's device. There should be cause to do so, of course, and the policy should state that the scope of a search will be limited to relevant data (not a wholesale scouring of employee personal data, which could leave you liable if you uncover personal health information or other protected data). This part of the policy should also cover what happens when employees leave the department.
Employees should also be compelled to turn over any evidentiary data on their personal devices as soon as possible after obtaining it. It may be, in some situations, that a personal device is the only means of recording a crime scene, a victim's injuries, a confrontation of some kind, or other evidence. But policy should dictate when this type of use is allowable and what should happen to the evidence following the recording.
Policy should also dictate how to handle mobile devices in certain situations, like officer-involved shootings or other use of force encounters. It may be that the device contains no evidence. Then again, the nature of text messages or other communications can help to establish an officer's frame of mind leading up to an encounter.

User Reviews by KVR Members for Spectrum Analyzer S8
There aren't any reviews yet!
This plugin is exactly what i needed! but i don't really know how to work with it in FL Studio 10.
Can anyone help?
Hi Ferez, thanks! Are you in Mac or Windows?
hello kevin,
i am a Win7 user
Well, so...once you've downloaded the .zip file you need to do this:
• Decompress the folder
• Decompress Max 6 Runtime folder or download it from here (http://cycling74.com/downloads/)
• Install Max 6 Runtime
• Download Jack (Virtual Audio Cables) from here (http://jackaudio.org/download)
• Install Jack
• Double click on Spectrumk Analyzer S8.mxf to open it
• Then, open the Spectrum Analyzer Manual and check the Audio Setting parts to configure the app and your software, in this case FL Studio. There is also a video tutorial http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=le8wfS_nh90
Ferez, it is really easy to use once you have done this first setting. Please let me now if you have any trouble but I don't think you will have! Cheers!
Charly Romero [remove]
this is a good idea, but the installation is complicated. Why not share the dll file?
kevinkripper [reply][remove]
Charly thanks for the words and the suggestion, I guess in the future I will create a dll file. At this moment is a standalone app which you can use it with virtual cables if you are working with a DAW or with several (up to eight) analog/digital inputs. On the other hand i do not think its a difficult installation, once you have installed Max/MSP 6 Runtime you only have to route audio from your DAW to the Spectrum Analyzer S8 with virtual cables. There is a tutorial in the manual and also a video tutorial on youtube that shows you how to do this. Hope you like it. Cheers!
Hey guys, my bad about all the "this post has been removed" i was just trying this discussion thing. Cheers!
i'll sure try your steps later, anyways, i think this is the most usefull plugin in the competition, so my 5 poins definitely goes to you. hope you'll release it as VST in the near future, even as a commercial plugin will still be great :)
Hey, thank you so much ferez! There is a kind of VST version but only runs on Ableton Live because it was developed in M4L (max for live). Again many thanks and stay tuned 'cause I will continue updating this app, this is just the first version. Cheers!
Ferez, here is the support thread for S8!
Great application! Its much easier to use it in Mac though. But i guess its because of Windows's virtual cables. I've tried it in both OS and in Mac (with Soundflower) I've configured it in two seconds while In Windows it took me more time because of Jack. Anyway, congratulations!
Zack, I'm glad you like it. And yes, it's much easier in Mac with Soundflower. I hope someday Cycling74 develop Soundflower for PC!
To much problems installing. First windows say "an error prevents to encode..."wan to skip? one time yes next I try not Not skip). Finish: noapp
When I try othr windows say me not have MAXCRT.dll
Really sorry. I was interested in a good analyzer
Hi, you have nothing to install. This is a standalone appication. So you just click on Spectrum Analyzer S8.exe (the one with the icon) and it must work. Im writing this from a windows 7 computer and Spectrum Analyzer S8 works flawlessly. Please read the manual which is inside the .zip file. Cheers.
Please log in to join the discussion

© Copyright 2014 Albany Herald
ALBANY -- The Anna Laine Brock Express pulled into the station Monday -- and when she pulled out, she left with her first no-hitter of the season
Brock, a 2009 Herald All-Area selection, struck out 10 Westwood batters Monday during an 11-0 Sherwood rout that lasted just five innings. Brock and SCA both moved to 6-2 on the season as Kaylee Dixon led the way from the plate, going 3-for-3, followed by Jordan Cox (2-for-3) and Christina Charles (2-for-2).
Brock, who is just a freshman, now has an ERA of .750. Sherwood plays again today at home vs. Crisp Academy at 4:30 p.m., while Westwood plays Terrell Academy on Thursday at home.
Speaking of dominating pitching performances, the Lady Patriots' Madison Ragan struck out 14 batters Thursday and Gaby Jackson hit a three-run triple in the fourth inning to help Randolph hold off a furious rally by Southland. Randolph Southern is now 2-2 and plays Westwood next on Aug. 31. Southland plays Sherwood on Thursday in Americus.

Many types of gloves are available, designed for different tasks and made of different materials — natural rubber latex, nitrile, vinyl, polyurethane and neoprene — to accommodate people who may have contact irritant or allergic reactions to certain substances. Glove durability should be an essential consideration, especially for caregivers working in environments where there is a likelihood of infection. Gloves may or may not contain dusting powder. People whose hands become damp as they work will find powdered gloves easier to don and remove. Those involved in dressing wounds prefer powder-free gloves because these present less risk of infection.
Disposable wipes and washcloths provide both safety and convenience. Disposable wipes generally feature a hypoallergenic, gentle cleansing formula to disinfect the skin thoroughly without irritating sensitive areas. Disposable wipes may also contain aloe, lanolin and, in some cases, vitamin E, to promote health and soothe skin. For ease of use, choose from soft packs or re-sealable plastic tubs that can make caregiving much more efficient.
Cotton gloves help to absorb hand creams & medicated ointments in a sanitary and timely manner.

Adult wipes are a skin care convenience perfect for a variety of personal needs. While an effective part of incontinence care and cleansing, adult wipes are also handy alternatives to washcloths—think of them as disposable washcloths—for use virtually anywhere on the body. They're the perfect solution for personal hygiene when a bath or shower just isn't possible.
Adult wipes have become so popular that there are dozens of types to choose from in terms of everything from ingredients to the style of packaging.
Here are the most important points to consider:
Flushable or disposable wipes. Depending on your sewer or septic system, you may be able to choose the added convenience of wipes that can be flushed down the toilet.
Scented, unscented or fragrance free. This choice depends first on whether you have any allergies that involve fragrance and, if not, whether you prefer a scent or not. Keep in mind that unscented does not mean fragrance free, but rather that the wipe doesn't have a noticeable smell. If allergies are a concern or if your skin tends to feel irritated by products with fragrances, you need to choose fragrance-free.
Aloe or other emollient ingredients. Incontinence can cause skin irritation; wipes will emollients can protect delicate skin as they cleanse. These ingredients are less crucial if you use a barrier cream or lotion to protect skin. Dimethicone is an ingredient in many wipes; it's a silicon that acts as a skin protectant and eases cleansing. Keep in mind that alcohol is a drying agent and may irritate skin.
Size. Adult wipes are obviously sized for adult use, however there are still many sizes to choose from, anywhere from 5" or 6" squares to 9" or 10" by 13" rectangles. Larger sizes allow for quick and easy clean-ups with fewer wipes; these might be a better choice when using wipes for full-body cleansing or fecal incontinence.
Packaging. Styles vary as much as the adult wipes themselves. Soft packaging takes up less room while pop-up containers often can be accessed with just one hand. A secure lid might provide a better barrier to keep adult wipes moist than a re-closeable seal unless you're very careful to seal it completely.
Price. Most disposable washcloths and other adult wipes are cheaper by the case. Cases may have anywhere from 6 to 12 packs or tubs, making them the economical choice. When you compare, be sure to consider how many wipes are in each package and how many packages there are to the case so that you can correctly compare the total number of wipes you're getting to the price.

HosaUSA Chunei Baby Carrier
" I really wanted this carrier to work for us. I am a size 20, and according to the descriptions on the website, the larger size sounded like it would work. I could get my son into the carrier easier than any other carrier I had tried, but the belt would not buckle around my belly. I wore it a few times without the belt and it was extremely comfortable, but I really wanted the..." --Pumpkin_Pie
BABYBJÖRN Baby Carrier Original
" This is the carrier I used for small infants. It is the easiest to get them into and out of. I own two of the same ones, one for in the house and one for the car. Also good for babies who like to face outwards. Once the babies get bigger, though, the straps dig into your shoulders. It is great for easy, short trips like the grocery. " --nicolerenee515

"This card was so cute! I really liked that I could add my sons picture and it was really easy to create the card. The picture makes it a nice keepsake for family. I received many compliments. The order arrived much earlier than the estimated arrival date so that made it even better!"
"Used for my daughters first bday party invites. Very nice quality. A touch smaller in size than I'd imagined, but should have read the details more closely. overall, great purchase."
"The design on this card is just perfect. Its delicate and simple, yet colorful and girly. It fit perctly with the theme for my little ones birthday. Everyone thought it was beautiful."
"I love being able to customize the products on this site. Whether font, color or placement, its nice to have that option. The quality of the projects I order are always great quality and I love being able to order the products when I have the chance!"
"Nice sturdy thick paper, modified rectangular envelopes were perfect! You can tell they were made especially for the square cards and are also nice and sturdy. Print and colors were great, I even added a few comments on the back like "rain or shine" and "garden admission is complimentary". You could also put detailed driving directions on the back, etc. Perfect design for my 2 year old's dinosaur party! It was also great that I could shop online on my lunch break and it was mailed to me and I didn't have to go to 2 or 3 different party stores to pick one out."

coach K FTW!
Has Mike Krzyzewski's USA Basketball tenure impacted Duke?
On Thursday, USA Basketball and Mike Krzyzewski made official what had been reported for several days: Krzyzewski will be returning as head coach of USA Basketball through the 2016 Olympics. He will also lead the national team in the 2014 World Championships.
This is excellent news if you care about USA Basketball. Krzyzewski is 62-1 as head man for the U.S., with the only defeat coming in his first event, the 2006 World Championships, when the United States lost to Greece in the semifinals on the way to a bronze medal. Under Krzyzewski, the U.S. has won the last two Olympic gold medals. Judging from public comments from LeBron James and others, this is welcome news, and Krzyzewski fully commands the respect of the game's elite.
What's more interesting, at least to me, is whether this change of tune on Krzyzewski's part will have any effect — positive or negative — on Duke basketball.
When Krzyzewski first landed the national team gig in 2005, there were two schools of contrasting thought. Some argued that this position, and his access to and relationships with the pro game's best players, would be an enormous recruiting advantage for the Blue Devils. That seeing Krzyzewski on the sidelines (as well as in American Express ads) was tantamount to free advertising for his college program. More recently, John Calipari (and others) have used similarly impressive connections as a positive recruiting tool, so the argument, at least as a base assumption, had some merit. The counterargument was that the demands of overseeing USA Basketball would spread Krzyzewski thinner and Duke basketball would suffer some as a result.
So what's actually happened since he first started juggling the two jobs? Well, Duke has been a No. 1 (three times) or No. 2 seed (four times) in the NCAA tournament in every season since then with the exception of 2007, when the Blue Devils were a 6-seed and lost to VCU in the "Is this the dagger?" Eric Maynor game in the Round of 64.
In the previous eight seasons, the Blue Devils were a No. 1 seed an astonishing seven times, with a No. 3 seed in 2003 as the only outlier. Still "regressing" half the time to a No. 2 seed instead of a No. 1 is not exactly compelling evidence of massive program slippage. Even with the total number of games played rising against past standards, the Blue Devils have won at least 27 games in every season but that 2007 campaign since Krzyzewski took over as USA coach. We haven't seen a Duke team as dominant as the 1999 or 2001 versions (or even 2004), but this still has been an extraordinarily successful and consistent program in terms of regular-season accomplishment.
What about recruiting, what of the argued advantages to Krzyzewski's higher-profile coaching platform? Per ESPN.com's class rankings (available since 2007), Duke has finished sixth, 23rd, ninth, sixth, second, 12th and 15th. Take recruiting rankings with a generous dose of salt, but the recruiting landscape definitely has changed during this time period with the implementation of the one-and-done rule. Duke hasn't tapped into that rent-a-star market as heavily as other programs (although the Blue Devils did have Kyrie Irving and Austin Rivers leave in consecutive years after one season in Durham).
Whether that's more philosophical or fit or Duke isn't quite as hot a landing spot for this type of player, it's hard to argue that Krzyzewski's position with USA Basketball has helped Blue Devil recruiting. They're certainly still getting their fair share of solid players each year, though, and Duke (like Kansas) does a good job of developing players who contribute more later in their careers.
It's been well documented that Duke has underachieved against NCAA tournament seed expectation over this period, even with the 2010 national championship in the equation. No. 1 seeds win, on average, around 3.3 games per tournament, and No. 2 seeds win about a game fewer than that, per data from Pete Tiernan's BracketScience and Performance Against Seed Expectations charts. In the seven tries Krzyzewski has had since his USA hire as a No. 1 or No. 2 seed, Duke has won a total of 16 games, or about four fewer than you would expect over that timespan given Duke's seeding. If you take out the national title run (obviously a very major if), the underperformance is pretty stark. Duke won 10 games in six tries when it was expected to win closer to 17.
That said, it's hard to conceive that Krzyzewski's association with USA Basketball has anything to do with Duke's record in one-off knockout games in March. Maybe this trend is correlated a bit to a talent dropoff vs. Duke teams from before the one-and-done era, but again, Duke still recruits pretty well and wins a ton of regular-season games. For this upcoming season, Duke has one of the nation's truly elite prospects in Jabari Parker, so it's not like star power isn't still finding its way to the Blue Devils roster. Krzyzewski's ongoing exposure to the best NBA players also may be a continuing boon in his ability to develop his college players as future pros.
It would be interesting to know more about the micro details — whether the demanding schedule causes him more fatigue, whether the time away during summers is truly impactful over the long-term, etc. — but the macro trends remain pretty strong. As Krzyzewski re-ups and looks to add a couple more notches to very arguably the most accomplished basketball coaching career ever, his program remains in very good shape, even as increased recent doses of March schadenfreude have satisfied the anti-Duke portion of College Hoops Nation. And, hey, Krzyzewski's compensation isn't so shabby, either. This sounds like a win for pretty much everyone concerned.

3585 Tamiami Trail, Naples

2555 Tamiami Trl. N, Naples
Jimmy P's Butcher Shop and Deli
1833 Tamiami Trl N, Naples
The Capital Grille
9005 Mercato Drive, Naples
NAPLES — If you're in pursuit of an all beef patty, special sauce, lettuce, cheese, pickles, onions on a sesame seed bun, there's no shortage of places to go in Naples for a burger. As a Nation, we eat enough burgers annually that comparisons of the leading item on American menus can't help but slip in.
A recent burger binge led me to check in on a few Neapolitan restaurants serving up the all-American burger. So, follow along and let's take a quick look into how America's favorite sandwich is served up in Naples.
First stop is the crème de la crème of burgers: the Capital Grille burger ($16). This extraordinary burger may as well be delivered on a silver platter. Is it the burger that makes the difference? The accompaniments that bring it from ordinary to extraordinary? Or is it the obligatory hot french fries sitting on the plate begging you to eat them slowly one by one? The Capital Grille chopped sirloin burger is delivered on its own customized plate with circular cut-outs in which a trio of sauce dishes containing ketchup, Dijon mustard and a house-made chive-and-garlic aioli are nestled. The burger arrives perfectly cooked on an onion bun with pickles cut lengthwise, purple heirloom tomatoes and brilliantly stacked, yet not too overpowering, onions.
Just when the mouth-watering burger is calling out for you to sink your teeth into, the waft of accompanying truffle French fries begs to be eaten causing a dilemma of what you are going to devour first. This burger is accurately characterized by Capital Grille as "almost too big to wrap your hands around" and "completes the journey from an all-American classic to an all new sensation."
The next burger stop produced an all-encompassing Kobe day. Where in Naples can you find a Kobe burger, a Kobe hot dog and see Kobe Bryant — even if the latter is simply on the deli's television set on ESPN? Head right on over too a wonderful Neapolitan secret: Jimmy P's Butcher Shop and Deli. If there is such a thing as a healthy burger, this is where you should steer your car and order up the delicious grilled Kobe (Wagyu) burger at this father-son owned strip-mall hideaway. Kobe beef claims to have a 2:1 ratio of monounsaturated fat (the "good fat") to saturated fat (the "bad" fat), making it a much better choice than any other beef.
Before you go, you'll need to exercise your chops for this jaw-defying sandwich ($6 / $8 / $12). Piled high with traditional toppings, this lip-smacking, extra-napkins-required juicy burger is indeed burgerlicious! If you crave an exceptional burger with less guilt this is your place.
Harold's Place at the Gulf Coast Inn, however, doesn't necessarily win burger bliss. Although it has rated in some polls as Naples number one burger place for 20 years in a row, this is not a noteworthy burger in any way, shape or form. The kitchen of this outdoor poolside restaurant is located outside in a small tropical chickee hut where the generic, tasteless patty is grilled and served on a nondescript bun with skimpy condiments ($7.25). Perhaps the perceived quality of this boring burger is induced by a day of too much sun or a long spell at the bar enjoying ice-cold adult beverages on a hot Florida summer day.
Taking a complete 360-degree turn, another burger experience to try is the Sonic Drive-In, complete with speedy carhop delivery. These burgers are cooked to order, juicy and transported to your car with a mile-high mound of shredded lettuce, tomatoes, pickles, mustard, onions and ketchup. You can find delight in this budget-friendly establishment's sandwich and amusement from its roller skating carhops. If you go, skip the cheesy "tator tots"; they will only feel like lead in your stomach for the rest of the day. Instead, go right for the burger of your choice, pile it high with condiments and wash it down with a cherry limeade topped with a maraschino cherry.
A great burger is matter of personal preference. It also has a lot to do with your state of mind. But whether it's on a silver platter or delivered on skates, it's an all-American classic. And this group is just a start on what can be a fun search for burgerlicious perfection.

AUSTIN -- If you haven't experienced driving 85 mph for free yet, your time is almost up. Starting Sunday, you'll have to pay tolls to drive that 41-mile stretch of SH-130.
"We had been doing some various tests and allowing people to come try out the road and experience 85 mph, which you can't really experience anywhere else, legally," lead engineer for the SH-130 Concession Company Guy Russell said.
On Sunday it will still be legal but will cost you about 15 cents a mile with a TxTag. For cars and SUVs' that translates to $6.17 for the entire stretch with a TxTag, or about $8.21 without one.
Sixteen tolling locations are in place and each is equipped with laser detectors and cameras. Russell said the cameras are the newest on the market. He said that means no matter how small or dull the writing on a plate the cameras will be able to see them.
In a speed test before the road opened, a driver clocked through a toll at 187 mph. They were still able to get a picture.
Officials like Lockhart Police said speeding is still not recommended. Following the speed limit change, several accidents involving wild hogs were seen near Lockhart.
The Lockhart Police Department recorded dash cam video of dozens of hogs running across the roadway a few weeks ago.
However the SH-130 Concession Company, the company in charge of that 41-mile stretch of road of SH-130, said they haven't seen hogs on their roads.
"Physically in our road, in our right of way we have yet to see them," IT management for the traffic operations center Jamie Gaylord said.
The traffic operations center watches the roads 24/7, 365 days a week. Their cameras are able to monitor most of the stretch of SH-130.
They said so far hogs haven't been a problem but they said their cameras do not cover the entire road.
"Our cameras don't give us complete inch-by-inch coverage of our roads," Gaylord said.
Gaylord said, so far, drivers have not complained about the roads being too dark to drive on either.
The SH-130 Concession Company will be placing warning signs to watch for wildlife along the roadway for drivers who expressed concern following the speed limit change.

1 cup
chopped golden raisins
1/2 teaspoon
1 1/2 cups
chopped walnuts
1 cup
chopped cranberries
1 cup
unsweetened crushed pineapple
1/4 cup
grated lemon peel
1 cup
flaked coconut
1/3 cup
orange juice
8 packets
artificial sweetener
1 teaspoon
ground mace
1 teaspoon
ground allspice
1 teaspoon
baking soda
1 1/2 cups
all-purpose flour
I made this fruitcake for my dad. He loves fruitcake and hadn't had one in years, due to his diabetes. I left out the coconut, because he doesn't like it. He absolutely LOVED this cake! He is the type of person who never asks for anything for himself - but he's already put in his request for more of this fruitcake!
It was too mushy for my families taste buds. I can't imagine using a 20 oz can of pineapple in this as one reviewer did, I used a 15 oz and it was way to much liquid! I didn't like the "mushy" consistency and you really couldn't cut it in nice slices. I had to spoon it. It was not a nice presentation. I guess if you are diabetic, it would give you a taste of fruitcake if you like fruitcake but if you are not diabetic, it is terrible, both in taste and presentation. Not a keeper for me.

This was really, really good. Made for my diabetic dad for Father's Day. Make sure you use canned crushed pineapple in juice-- and include the juice with the measurements. I actually added a little extra as well. I used craisins instead of fresh cranberries and used half whole wheat flour. Very tasty and flavorful. This is a great recipe.
Wow, I am so pleasantly surprised how great this tastes! I used 1/2 tsp of nutmeg instead of mace and then used a whole 20oz crushed pineapple. Followed the rest of the ingredients on the recipe. I did bake it for an extra 15 min for a total of 55 and my picky husband said it was one of the best fruitcakes he's ever had! Thank you, thank you since I've been searching for a great recipe for Fruitcake.
I'm not a fruitcake eater, but my mother is and she loves this! Se said it rials Klaxton's (sp?) fruitcake. I've made this for my grandmother who is diabetic but loves fruitcake. The only thing I did differently was I used only 1 up of choppe walnuts. Very moist and smells terrific! Thanks for sharing this recipe!
Very good. Dense and delicious, plenty sweet just as written. Thanks! I didn't soak the berries for an hour, just as I prepped the other ingredients and that worked just fine. Like others, I had to bake mine for longer, but that is to be expected as oven temps vary and it is quite moist.
I made this as a healthy recipe for a family gathering and everyone enjoyed it quite a bit. However the first time I made it, it came out slightly dry so I doubled the amount of pineapple the second time and reduced mace to at least half. Also, I used whole wheat flour and my little cousin who is a year old had a blast eating it!
My husband is a diabetic and this was a wonderful treat for him, since he always missed fruitcake. I was unsure how this would turn out, but it is amazing! I couldn't find a single change that would improve this recipe. This recipe is a new Christmas keepsake.
