Cake or Mud Anchor?

We had a "spare" christmas cake that never got touched due to over catering, ie a typical christmas. Anyroad, I put some in her butty box for her lunch:
Erica sent me this email today:
"DO NOT EAT THE FRUITCAKE!
IT IS POISONOUS AND MUST BE DESTOYED!!
Don’t worry – I’ll eat it as a way of getting rid of it."
I got suspicious at this point and decided I had better try some just to make sure she had got it right. Do you know, I think it's actually OK but she wants it all for herself!
What should I do?

I don't know what to suggest but I would point out that if she's allowed fruit cake I don't see why you shouldn't be able to take a pair of 22 year old busty lovelies to Las Vegas for a long weekend. Fair's fair!

Well, you obviously aren't getting any then.
And that goes for the cake as well!

Tell her it's too late & you are changing your will unless she sends the antidote. That may give you a clue what the "poison" is. But may just she call your bluff by sending the wrong antidote.
Give a big piece to someone you don't like & observe the results.

I've sent a big chunk off to the Editor of 'Yachting Monthly' after the copy debacle on Silkie's 'Reader's Boat' submission.

That is a tasty looking cake

Thank you. I must give praise here to Saint Delia herself. The cost of the bottles of alcohol alone to soak the fruit came in at a shade under £20 and I don't know what to do with them now.

Well I wouldn't start looking for the remainder of the Port!
I think the Brandy could come in if I need to strip varnish.
