Of vegetables and other foodstuffs
which do not require quick cooking or
much heat. She uses an oil stove Tor
making coffee and tea, and cooking
such vegetables and other foodstuns

On Saturday she bakes enough cake,
bread and pie to last through most OF
the week to come, and she also roaste

the meat is chopped fine and nodded

are jellies, Bavarian cream or chilled
