A SIMPLE WEDDING BREAKFAST
The wedding breakfast is an English
fashion, which was introduced about Il
dozen years ago. The ''stand up'' break
fast is generally preferred except at ex-
y.
On the OCCASION when the simpler fash
ion is followed the table is prettily
dressed with flowers, candied fruits. con-
fectionery, olives and sailed almonds.
The wedding cake, deliberately decorated,
may occupy the center of the tn BILE, or
there is ut Il dinner-and the wedding
cake may be placed on the buffet and
passed to the bride at the end of the
breakfast to be cut. This breakfast
should be substantial meal, but the
following menu will be found satisfac-
tory:
Bouillon served in cups.
Escalloped oysters. Lobster chops.
Boned turkey. Chicken croquettes.
Broiled woodcock OH toast.
Peach icecream. Orange ice.
Cake. Confectionery.
This menue may be made still more
simple by emitting the lobster chops and
the chicken croquettes.
AT an October wedding there should be
some broiled game, because game is al
ready excellent, especially small birds.
1Ieedbirds may be substituted for the
more expensive woodcock. An advan
tage. of the menu suggested is that cv
crything except the, oysters and wood:
left on the ice until it is to be cooked
The bouillon should be made the day
before, strained, cooled and kept cool
until half all hour before it is needed,
when it should be brought to the boiling
point, and is ready to serve.
The boned turkey may be made ready
the day before the wedding and the Gro
QUOTES and chops may be formed and
Dreaded, ready for frying. The chicken
for the salad may be laid in a seasoning of
salt, pepper, oil and vinegar on the ice
until the time it is wantedt~hen it should
be dressed with may onnaise and decorat-
ed.
The mayonnaise dressing for this sal
al, as we'll as for the tomatoes, should
be made the day before and kept Gil the
ice.
The ices, if made at home, should be
prepared early in the morning and left
packed until the hour the breakfast is
| served. This is always half an hour af~
| ter the ceremony, and may therefore oc-
| cur as late as o'clock in the afternoon,
though it is often earlier.
There should be an abundance of deli
| cute buttered rolls, or wafer-like slices Of
buttered bread. Coffee and tea are not
usually served at wedding breakfasts.
