Cheaters Fudge

Another recipe for the non-cook! I tried to post this one a bit ago for Sheena, but when I made it, I obviously wasn’t remembering something because I got a very tasty chocolate mush. I figured out what I did wrong and here’s the correct recipe. I had to make a batch just to try it out. Don’t worry Kevin. I didn’t eat it. I gave it away to neighbors. Well, I did have a piece yesterday, and another today – but the rest will be leaving the house shortly! And not by way of my stomach! I promise!

Ingredients
1 package milk chocolate chips
1 package peanut butter chips
1 can (14 ounces) of sweetened condensed milk
1 stick butter or margarine

Get out either a 9’ by 9’ or 9’ by 13’ pan (depending on how thick you want your fudge.) Grease the pan lightly. In a large bowl dump all the ingredients together and melt them in the microwave. Stir it occasionally so as not to over cook. When it’s melted and blended well, pour it into your pan and put it in the fridge to set up. It’s best overnight, but I managed to cut it after three hours this time. You can add nuts if you like. (My tummy isn’t a big fan of nuts.) Enjoy!

Ratner's Cheesecake

Here's another recipe from Toby! Thanks Toby......and I'll get the others posted soon! Ratner's Cheesecake and plain cookies Ratner's was a Jewish dairy restaurant in the lower East Side of Manhattan. This recipe, from my disintegrating, no longer in print Ratner's cookbook, is the closest I've ever gotten to reproducing the rich, heavy cheesecake my mother made when I was a kid. It's worth the time it takes to prepare and every last calorie. Dough Can be prepared in advance. Makes enough for two cakes. Can be frozen or used to make cookies – see recipe below. 1 cup sugar 1 teaspoon vanilla extract 1 cup shortening 1 teaspoon lemon extract 1 cup butter 2 eggs 3 cups sifted cake flour ½ teaspoon salt 2 cups all purpose flour 1 teaspoon baking powder 1. In a bowl, combine all ingredients with hands. Refrigerate 3 -4 hours, or preferably overnight. Filling (for...

The next generation with Hermansky-Pudlak Syndrome

I'm so behind on posting about the trip to Puerto Rico. Since the episode of Mystery Diagnosis on Hermansky-Pudlak Syndrome ran right after we got home, it's been a little busy. These, however, are my favorite pictures from Puerto Rico. I know, not pretty senery etc - but these little guys and gals inspire me. They are the next generation of folks with HPS, and if we keep up the hard work, they will live better lives because of it. They motivate me.

The blog is back, I hope

  What started as a way to share news about HPS and what it is like to live with Hermansky-Pudlak Syndrome has fallen apart badly! There are a lot of reasons for this. Some are related to health. Some are related to time. And some are related to mental health. Finally, the last obstacle was technical. I lost access to my blog. Every time I started to work on regaining access, something interrupted the process and I’d have to start all over again. Before you say it, I know. A blog is so old school. Haven’t you heard of a vlog Heather? Or maybe TikTok? I know my limits. I have a great face for radio. I’m not particularly eager to film myself. When I do, I feel I need to spend extra time putting on makeup or fixing my hair. Yet, often when I have the time to do something like this, it is early in the morning or late at night. I don’t want to “get ready.” I’m having a hard enough time squeezing this in without staging myself. Grin. I’m trying to start with small goals. Right now, I...
