My nephew works at the Hershey Chocolate factory in Robinson, Illinois where they make them.

I had installed some printers that sprayed printing on CD boxes as they raced down a packaging line. Some people from the Hershey plant that makes Reese's Peanut Butter Cups came to see how well they worked. This was the Stuarts Draft, Virginia plant.

They brought three large cases of Reese's Cups and put them out for the employees. Some people just didn't know their limit and ate way too many.

It's essentially just sugar fried in butter. Don't even need a candy thermometer.

However, I've never been able to get the chocolate to stick to it.

It's so cold, I'm going back to bed for a bit just for the comfort of the blankets. Will figure out breakfast probably around brunch time.

I ate my cold leftover Chinese takeout at one of my wakenings around midnight.

knowing how the sugary stuff makes me feel, I stuck to my usual breakfast wrap.
and coffee



I really wanted something like an apple-filled or lemon-filed donut. Or a Boston-cream donut.

13. Blueberry muffins and coffee

Coffee for me, milk for DH. The muffins are from my 'general rule' recipe for muffins and coffeecakes. This time with frozen blueberries and a little orange peel and nutmeg.

Does anybody else have any 'general rule' recipes? A recipe that if followed will assure success, but has the potential for infinite variations? The term itself goes back a century or two.

It would be worth a new thread if anybody else cooks that way.
