The Cake so Nice We Made it Twice

Well, Husband made it twice anyway.  Since a few of you have emailed or told me in person you'd be making the fruitcake yourself, I thought I would make these updates.

Every once in awhile, Husband takes my advice - I thought the cake would be improved with a little brown sugar, so he replaced onE cup of the sugar with brown sugar, which had delicious results - specifically, it leads to a more complex flavor and contributes extra moisture.  Furthermore, I wanted to add that the fruit is measured after being soaked and drained.  I had assumed one would measure it before, so I thought perhaps you would, too.
