A ministers wife of ours asked me to bake this loaf for one of the ministers meetings one year. I'm not a big fan of fruit cake, because they're to heavy. I like this one very much. That way I get to enjoy fruit cake at Christmas with everyone else. (I buy the other kind so that my DH won't be deprived)

1/2 cup candied cherry
1/2 cup glazed pineapple
