Model, "Gossip Girl" stylist and blogger, Lauren Scruggs, was released from the hospital today, after accidentally walking into a a plane propeller in December 2011. Scruggs had gone out for a flight in a small plane to view Christmas lights, when tragedy struck after she disembarked. Scruggs lost her left eye and hand, but survived a tragedy most thought she would die from.

Thank God, she is still alive, as she also sustained head injuries. Scruggs will now focus on getting a prosthetic and rebuilding her life. As the Judiciary Report stated on December 10, 2011, in spite of the accident, Scruggs is still pretty...and as you can see, she still is beautiful. It is possible for her to continue with her life and still do great things. Don't ever lose hope Lauren.

Not Even Homeland Security Will Take Fruit Cake

Exhibit A: Americans' aversion to fruit cake, as told by the "Fruit Cake" song, which is one dead wrong musical parody of legendary Sam Cooke's music.

Over the years in America, I have seen sitcom after sitcom mock the fruit cake, which is not fair (ok, some deserve it, as a fruit cake should not be able to anchor a ship). I've seen some good fruit cakes in America, then again I've seen a few fruit cakes that looked so lumpy, I wondered how one would digest something of said consistency, as it looked like it would take out one's insides on the way out and possibly back up the septic system. What am I saying, this one looks like it came out of the septic system:

Turns out, not even Homeland Security, who once took the diaper (nappy) off a senior citizen, wants to take fruit cake (Traveling with Food or Gifts). This is a shame. Jamaicans love fruit cake, but it is made differently according to island customs, pardon the pun. All the fruits and candy peel you see on an American fruit cake, are blended in a blender, then baked (aides in digestion and prevents choking as well LOL). Not to mention, it is baked with Jamaican rum, with more Jamaican rum poured over it when the cake is finished baking. Yes, really, Jamaican rum, which coincidentally cost the British battles on the island centuries ago (they got distracted by the rum...and the women).

In closing, for a smoother fruit cake this holiday season, you may want to change things up a bit by blending the fruits in a blender, then baking it with the rest of the fruit cake mixture, which will give you a nice, flavorful cake.
