Dependence

Like a dog waiting for his master to throw him a milk-bone when he comes home, my family anticipates my arrival. They are always excited when I visit due in part to the decedent foods I provide. I make them tasty treats with chocolate, alcohol, and caffeine that once they’ve tried them they can no longer live without. I also make pizzas, sandwiches, and casseroles that are oh so good and can’t be obtained from any other source. They are dependent on the food and therefore dependent on me.

Recipes

Rum Balls

Mix thoroughly (use your hands it's pretty thick):

3 cups finely crushed vanilla wafers (Nilla wafers 1 box)
¼ cup un-sweetened cocoa powder
½ cup confectioners powdered sugar
¼ cup dark rum

Do not add too much of the liquid ingredients, the dryer they are the better.

Form 1 inch diameter balls and roll smooth with the palm of your hand. Roll the balls in powdered sugar to get a tack-free coating. Refrigerate and serve cold.
