Thanks. I just dug out my mother's Betty Crocker cookbook. As soon as the Dollar Store opens tomorrow I will get some vanilla wafers. The original recipe is nice and simple. The older recipes use cheaper ingredients then what the Chocolate and Candy makers post now on the internet or in the modern cookbooks. Nuts are running about $6 to $8 a pound this year, so it will be the crushed cookies for the truffle center. This recipe give you the choice between rum, bourbon or brandy. I have everything but the cookies. It has been a long time since I have made them. I will post the recipe when I get them done.

The candy fruit was passed out after last's years holidays at the food pantry. You get to know people after a while and they didn't want the containers so they gave them to me to make something for the kids. I had no trouble storing the fruit to use for this year. I still have some left for Christmas bread.

Texas, that is a long way from New York's weather.

Hey Momo, happy Thanksgiving

Hey Momo, I learned long ago that home is the place that when you have to go there they have to let you in so I'm in the great state of Texas now. This song came to mind along with memories you brought back of mom's rum balls that she made each year about this time. Happy Thanksgiving to you and yours.

Happy Thanksgiving, momoe. Please don't forget, in the hubbub and the craziness that comes with family and friends, to take a few minutes to appreciate and be thankful for you. We all do ... and are.

Happy Thanksgiving everyone.
