Bite-sized cheesecakes
sure to be party pleasers
(MS) — In many households,
cheesecake is a mainstay of holiday
entertaining. Families may even
compete as to who boasts the best
recipe.
Whether you prefer extra creamy
cheesecake, Italian style with ricotta
inside, blueberry versus strawberry
fruit topping, or any of the dozens of
other cheesecake varieties, you may
recognize that cheesecake is not the
easiest of desserts to make.
Plus, it is a rich dessert, which can
sit heavily in your stomach if you
overindulge.

Influenza arrives in Huron ()Royal Canadian Legion
Brussels Branch 218
Wishes to extend Christmas Tidings
and New Year Wishes to all its
members and faithful supporters
for all their work and support
this past year.
Best Wishes for a Happy 2007.
The Huron County Health Unit
has confirmed its first case of
Influenza A for the season.
The flu bug was found in a young
woman in the Seaforth area.
Influenza, or "the flu," usually
comes with a high fever, headache,
sore throat, cough, and head/muscle
aches. In seniors and people with
chronic health problems (like lung or
heart disease or diabetes), influenza
can lead to complications such as
pneumonia.
Many people confuse other flu-
like illnesses that cause coughs and
sniffles with true influenza.
Influenia tends to be more serious.
Influenza should not be confused
with the "stomach flu" or viral
gastroenteritis that is also common
at this time of year. Symptoms with
stomach flu usually include
vomiting and diarrhea, not the
breathing-related problems you see
with influenza.
Flu shots are given each fall to
help protect vulnerable people, and
those who work with them.
Once it arrives, influenza usually
stays around the community for 10
to 12 weeks. The bug often keeps
many children home from school
and turns up in long-term care
homes.
It is very important that people
stay home if they're sick. If you stay
home, you can avoid infecting
others, especially the elderly.
Avoid visiting nursing or
retirement homes when you are ill.
Visiting patients in the hospital
should also be deferred until you are
feeling better.
Parents should avoid the use of
ASA (aspirin) in children or teens.
Using ASA for the flu or chickenpox
in younger people has been linked
with a rare and serious complication
known as Reye Syndrome.
The Huron County Health Unit
encourages everyone to eat well and
wash your hands frequently,
particularly if you have ill loved
ones at home.
It's not too late_ to get your flu
shot. Keep in mind it will take 10-14
days for the shot to take effect. Flu
shots are still available at your
physician's office or at the Huron
County Health Unit. Call for your
appointment!
