Postscript

I got this email from my mother this morning:


Dear Sweetheart,

That white fudge with dried cherries was good.
So shut UP!


Love, Mom
(who still loves you anyway)


Mom, dried cherries kind of look like scabs. So maybe they'd be good as a Halloween candy. You could tint the vanilla fudge with a hint of red food coloring and just a touch of cocoa powder to make it look like a chunk of human flesh. Then add the little bits of cherries disguising themselves as coagulated blood and you have a yucky little dessert that your seven-year-old grandson (the one who likes to eat candy eyeballs) will really love.
