Grandma’s Fruit Cake

Fruit cake! What do you think when you hear it? Yuck? Either you like it, or you don’t. I’m including the recipe I use, which was originally a raisin cake my grandmother made when my parents got married in 1916. So, it has been around for a while. When I got married in 1948, I asked my mother if she had the recipe for a fruit cake and this is the one she said she used and told me the history of it. She added the other fruits to it, nothing candied, to make the fruit cake that I make today.

325 degrees 1 cup shortening (I use Crisco) 1 cup raisins 1 1/2 cups white granulated sugar 1 cup dates chopped 1/2 cup molasses 1 16 oz jar maraschino cherries (drained and halved)

2 eggs

1 20 oz can crushed pineapple in juice

1 tsp cinnamon

1 cup chopped nuts (walnuts or pecans)

1/2 tsp all spice

4 1/2 cups all-purpose flour 1/2 tsp cloves

1 tsp baking soda

1 tsp baking powder

Mix all fruit ingredients together in a large bowl, then add dry ingredients. Mix well until blended. Put into greased pans, 1 angel food pan – about 2 hours or 2 bread loaf pans – check after an hour, or 5 small loaf pans

NOW HERE’S A TIP

In a pinch, you can use toothpaste to scrub your faucet in the bathroom.

Radiofrequency Ablation Considerably Lessens Back Pain

DEAR DR. ROACH: I suffered a lower back injury in 2001, with crushed and bulging discs in the L2, L3, L4 and L5 vertebras. After over a year of physical therapy and drugs, my pain doctor tried an epidural injection, which did not work, and then suggested I try something new at that time called a radiofrequency ablation (also called a lumbar facet rhizotomy). It’s done as an outpatient surgery and may have to be repeated.

I’ve done so many that I opt for no anesthesia. It works great; I even get up and drive myself home! I’ve learned to limit my activities, so as to not cause more damage due to my disabled pain receptors.

I have been pain- and drug-free for almost 20 years. The treatment usually lasts nine to 14 months, and when I feel the nerves starting to fire again and cause me pain, I just schedule the procedure and have them ablated again.

Whenever I see somebody walking funny due to back pain, I mention this procedure to them. Several of them have come back and thanked me for saying something. Doctors don’t seem to promote this procedure, and I don’t understand why. It’s clearly another option besides surgery and addictive medication. It’s been a win-win for me, as opposed to surgery.

Please help promote this wonderful yet “unknown” procedure. I’m still living an active normal life at 64, 20 years after I was told I may end up in a wheelchair. -- M.T.

ANSWER: Radiofrequency ablation of the nerves in the back has been used since the 1970s in people with intractable back pain. The procedure uses an electrode that heats the nerves in the facet joints of the back, stopping pain conduction. This is done when the treating physician is sure that the pain is coming from these particular nerves, called the lumbar medial branch nerves. This procedure is not appropriate for all types of back pain. Typically, the physician will perform a block using an injection, and if this is successful, but short-lived (as is often the case), a radiofrequency ablation is considered. When it works, a year of relief is typical (sometimes shorter or, for a few, up to three years) before the nerve fibers regenerate, at which point the procedure can be repeated. Burning or numbness around the injection site is the most common adverse effect.

Effectiveness rates in the published literature range from 50% to nearly 100% in small trials of carefully chosen subjects. However, a large randomized trial of this procedure in subjects who were being treated with an exercise program and psychological support did not show a significant improvement in pain or function.

I agree with you that this procedure is safer than surgery, and while I’m glad it’s worked for you, the evidence of benefit from the highest-quality trials is lacking. ***

TIPS TO HELP REALIZE YOUR GOALS IN THE YEAR AHEAD

Make note of potential obstacles. Recognizing potential hurdles in advance of their appearance can help you overcome these obstacles and stay the course toward achieving your goals. For example, men and women hoping to lose weight can look ahead to occasions that might compromise their efforts, such as a loved one’s wedding or backyard barbecue.Recognizing these obstacles in advance gives people a chance to develop a plan to overcome them. In the weight loss example, men and women can choose vegetarian options from reception menus or resolve to avoid alcohol,which tends to be high in calories.

Thank you Livingston City Sheriff and National Grid

On Wednesday November 30, we woke to very blustery winds. We found a Livingston County Deputy in our driveway-apparently he noticed the electrical pole across from our driveway had been damaged by the wind. He had notified National Grid of the problem and stayed while they came to assess the damage. Within 2 hours National Grid had come and stabilized the damaged pole and then returned and replaced it with a brand new pole. We never even lost our power! Thank you so much Livingston County Sheriff and National Grid. Job well done-we are grateful!

Riga Recreation Secret Santa

On Wednesday, December 14th, for the 10th year in a row, the Riga Recreation "Santa" took to the snowbarren roads of the Town with his elves in search of uniquely decorated homes to surprise those at home with gift cards purchased from local businesses. It is always difficult to choose these homes as there are many worthy choices. However, Santa's little elves pointed out those they felt deserved a Christmas surprise. Special thanks to the Elves of Riga. Merry Christmas to ALL.....and to ALL a Good Night!

Inconsiderate deer hunters

It’s absolutely disgusting and irresponsible for hunters to gut deer along paths and dump the carcasses at trailheads. Not only is this unsightly and unpleasant for hikers, but it also poses a potential health hazard. The guts and organs of a deer can contain diseases and parasites, which can be spread to other animals and even humans. And leaving the carcasses out in the open can attract scavengers and create a mess for others to clean up. Hunters need to be considerate of others and take responsibility for disposing of the remains properly.

Regarding the “Response” to the Roof on HighMark Stadium

The most important point you make is that a roof could indeed add more money to the project. Not sure it would take a billion dollars as you suggest, however, a roof makes way too much sense for the Bills and their Western New York fans. Just this past Sunday, facing the Jets in nasty weather, the Bills amassed 18 yards gained on offense in the first quarter. Jet’s defense perhaps, but I think Mother Nature, put up an even better fight. According to Dawson Knox, “the ball is always wet, the wind’s whipping …. don’t know if you call that snow or rain.” Can’t be much fun for the fans, especially when the players are complaining, and the players have heated benches and parkas to help keep them warm. The 4 straight Super Bowls the Bills went to is ancient history – remarkable, yes, but a roof provides near perfect conditions and would, I feel, enhance this Bills team’s ability to strike effectively and more often. Just add a roof to the existing HighMark Stadium. Problem solved!

Do Unto Others

During a recent visit to a popular retail chain store, I was taken aback by the disarray I saw in many of the aisles. Inconsiderate shoppers had knocked items from their places and left them. Others had abandoned unwanted merchandise far from its original location, such as baby outfits in the Christmas section. Clothes were crammed onto fitting room racks or strewn on the floor. Businesses are already understaffed, resulting in longer lines for everyone and surly attitudes for some. Shoppers, please try to put yourselves in the shoes of overworked associates and “do unto others as you would have them do unto you.” It will undoubtedly save you time and money, with workers spending less time cleaning up and more time on their registers or stocking shelves.

One Billion Safety Recalls

It was recently disclosed that in the rst half of 2022, there were over 1 billion recalls across the country of products that we buy. at’s billion, with a “b.” Depending on the level of the recall, some of them can be extremely serious ... even deadly.

How do we know whether we missed an announcement about a product we own? We can go online to Recalls.gov and look. ey cover everything from sports equipment to electronics, household items and more. You can search on that site by date, the type of hazard and the country where an item was manufactured. I searched for clothing. It was shocking to see a dozen children’s items recalled for re hazard. And the padded rolling desk chair with the legs that can break. And the smoke and carbon monoxide alarms that don’t work. And laundry detergent with dangerous bacteria in it.

To be noti ed about recalls, go to www.cpsc.gov/Newsroom/Subscribe and sign up for the free email alerts.

If you need to keep up with recalls and alerts for a vehicle, go online to www.nhtsa.gov/recalls. You’ll need the vehicle identi cation number (VIN), which can be found on the door jamb behind the driver door. Or you can search by year, make and model of your vehicle. For the very latest vehicle recalls, Kelley Blue Book also has them listed on the front page at www.kbb.com/recall.

Food is another area where we need to keep up with any recalls and warnings. Search for “FDA Recalls, Market Withdrawals, & Safety Alerts” for the latest information on cosmetics, veterinary items, medical devices and food. Right on the front page was a list of alerts for products with undeclared wheat, potential listeria, salmonella and more. In the medical devices it was disturbing to learn of rust on needles.

You’ll see a link there to sign up for alert emails.

SAFELY THIS NEW YEAR’S EVE

Don’t overindulge in alcohol. For many people, overindulging in alcohol is part and parcel during New Year’s Eve celebrations. Such behavior puts everyone at risk, even people who don’t drive. According to the National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism, conservative estimates suggest that roughly one-half of sexual assaults on American women involve alcohol consumption by the perpetrator, victim or both. While alcohol and its relationship to traffic fatalities draw the bulk of the attention on New Year’s Eve, even people who don’t intend to drive should recognize the dangers of overindulging in alcohol and drink responsibly.

Happy New Year! Finding Grace in Times of Change

BY AMANDA DUDEK

Time brings change. If there is a common thread through the human experience, it may be that we tend to nd change a bit frightening – if not outright terrifying. Yet, time marches on. Every New Year’s Eve, we are faced with a fresh year, hot o the presses. Its 365 days are full of changes and the challenges that come with them. How do we face the inevitable? How do we navigate life’s changes with grace and peace?

FAITH

Faith has been described as believing as fact what cannot be seen, or better, what cannot yet be seen. Some have faith in God, a precious faith that sees us through whatever changes may come, believing that all transpires under the watchful eye of providence. Many have faith in loved ones, friends and family we hold dear through life’s ups and downs. In our family, we nd an anchor, a sense of self, ties to our past, and a glimpse into our future.

Perhaps, faith also means keeping faith with ourselves, with who we truly are. Challenging times can change us into people we don’t recognize, or they can cause us to hold even more tightly to the truths we believe in. ere is an unspoken power in remaining kind, loving, and generous in the face of uncertainty, even adversity.

“ is above all: to thine own self be true.”

HOPE

– Shakespeare, Hamlet

“Hope is the thing with feathers at perches in the soul, And sings the tune without the words, And never stops at all,”

– Emily Dickinson

We must never underestimate the power of hope. It has become vogue over the past decade or so to imagine dystopian futures or realities similar to our own but in which everything

turns out terribly, in which humanity struggles against nuclear holocaust, worldwide chaos, a new global ice age, etc. No wonder people are on edge, fearful of the future and of change.

Every now and then, however, a work of ction emerges that suggests a brighter, more wonderful future than we had ever dreamed possible. ese hopeful pieces streak like shooting stars across our imaginations. ey remind us that the future is not set, that it will always be what we make it, and that we should never, ever ignore the possibility of miracles. As Balthasar would have it in the Charlton Heston classic Ben Hur, “...all life is a miracle!”

LOVE

“ ree things will last forever – faith, hope, and love – and the greatest of these is love.”

– 1 Corinthians 13:13 NLT is popular Biblical passage is frequently read at weddings. It’s little wonder as it beautifully and succinctly articulates the eternal and transcendent nature of love. Much has been written about love since the dawn of time; its endurance, importance, power, and more. While not much that is new can be said on this subject, perhaps one of the best things to remember is, to quote Reba, “Love isn’t love until you give it away.”

No matter what changes lie ahead, there will always be loved ones, friends – old and new – and people around us who need all the love we can give. ere are no changes more powerful than love, no challenges so strong they can stop us from continuing to bring love into the world and into the lives of all those we touch. It is the love we receive and the love that we give that allows us to face change with gracious attitudes and peaceful hearts.

It is with faith, hope, love, and deepest gratitude that we wish you and your family a Happy New Year!

Thank You Members

How to Give Your Pet a Healthy, Happy New Year

DEAR PAW’S CORNER: is week, many Americans are celebrating their newest gi to the family: a cute puppy or kitten, duck or chicken, or pocket pets like hamsters and Guinea pigs. It’s also a time to form new resolutions in anticipation of the New Year.

I hope that new pet owners’ rst resolution will be to establish a relationship with a veterinarian with expertise in their speci c pet. Some pets need to start or continue a vaccination schedule so that they grow up healthy. Puppies are at risk of contracting parvo virus, for example, so bolstering their immune system is very important.

Your vet also can provide advice and tips for caring for pets. Guinea pigs, hamsters and rabbits communicate happiness or distress in unique ways that a new owner may not be familiar with. Puppies are wiggly and energetic. Kittens are curious and fearless. Vets can help new owners navigate these waters and provide regular checkups to help keep pets healthy. -- Dedicated Vet in Boston

DEAR DEDICATED: ank you for sending this! Establishing a care routine with a veterinarian is so important. It should sit at the top of owners’ to-do lists, along with providing comfortable, warm bedding, a clean and safe environment and, especially for puppies, a daily training routine. Mark your calendar with key dates, including checkups with the vet, appointments with a trainer and regular resupplies of food, litter, bedding, and everything else your new pet needs.

Here’s to a happy, healthy and fun New Year with your pet!

Send your New Year pet pics to ask@pawscorner.com, and we may share them in a future column!

NOW HERE’S A TIP

By JoAnn Derson

* The end of the year is a great time to pick up next year’s holiday decorations at a discount. Before you pack away your holiday lights, ornaments, cards, etc., do an inventory and see if you are able to find what you need to complete your look at a slashed price.

* Computer grocery lists can make not only shopping easier, but organization as well. Keep a file listing all the items you usually purchase from week to week. You can even create sections based on where certain items are located throughout the store. This will ensure you don’t miss something, necessitating a return trip to the store. Stay organized to save money.

* “Keep a small package of antibacterial wipes in your car to clean your hands after pumping gas. Not only is there any potential gas to get off your hands, but these handles don’t get cleaned often, and are very dirty.” -- R.D. in South Carolina

* “If you have extra papers that are only printed on one side, save

New Year’s resolutions are made every January, and many people use this tradition as a chance to declare their intention to change jobsintheyearahead.Thereasons why people change jobs vary, but the most popular reason to do so might surprise you. According to a LinkedInsurveyofmorethan10,000 people who recently changed jobs, 45 percent of respondents indicated they changed jobs due to a lack of opportunities for advancement with their previous employers. The next most popular reason to switch jobs was dissatisfaction with the leadership of senior management. Employers may be surprised to learn that dissatisfaction with compensation was relatively low on the list of why people changed jobs, as just 34 percent of respondents listed that among the top reasons why they left their old jobs. While that may encourage employers to find ways other than pay increases to keep their employees happy, it’s also important to note that the LinkedIn survey found that money was the second most popular reason job switchers, 74 percent of whom received higher salaries at their new jobs, chose their new positions.

Did you know?

Most historians credit the Roman emperor Julius Caesar with developing the Julian calendar, designating January 1 as the start of a new year. The Gregorian calendar, which many nations around the world use today, arrived in 1582 when Pope Gregory XIII aligned the calendar, not with the moon, but with the earth’s rotation around the sun — marking 365 days.

MOMENTS IN TIME The History Channel

Many people consider the Times Square section of midtown Manhattan the epicenter of North American New Year’s Eve celebrations. While there are plenty of places throughout North America to ring in the new year, few, if any, can compare to Times Square, where revelers have been celebrating the dawn of a new year for well over a century. According to the Times Square Alliance, New Year’s Eve was first celebrated in Times Square in 1904. But the New Year’s Eve ball, an iconic symbol of the holiday across the globe, didnotmakeanappearanceuntil 1907, when it descended from a flagpole atop One Times Square. Made of iron and wood, that first ball weighed 700 pounds and was outfitted with 100 25-watt light bulbs. One hundred light bulbs might have seemed like a lot back in 1907, but a century later the special ball made to mark the centennial celebration was illuminated with more than 32,000 Philips Luxeon LED bulbs, which organizers felt greatly increased the brightness and color capabilities of the ball.

* On Jan. 2, 1981, the so-called Yorkshire Ripper, Peter Sutcliffe, is finally caught by British police. For five years, investigators had pursued the serial killer who terrorized Northern England. Sutcliffe had been interviewed nine times but always convinced detectives that he wasn’t involved. He finally confessed when confronted with evidence.
