vegetables may be boiled in the same
way Carrots and turnips cooked IN the
following way are attractive and dell
cious First put them through groovel

When making puddings, remember that
starchy foods. unlike meats, are more
digestible and usually more palataoie
when twice cooked. Pack into outter-
ed dish and set away what remains from
a good-sized pudding. Al the end Oh one
or two days when the pudding reappears
hot and steaming II will be all the better
for its temporary retirement. The same
principle applies to baked beans, split
peas. macaroni and most cereals.
To frost a cake evenly to the very edge,
and prevent the icing from running down
the sides, double a piece of stiff waNed
paper and pin il about the cake closely,
letting the band come about half an inch
above the top of the cake. Spread on
the icing thickiy and evenly. Do not
remove the paper until the icing is set.
Hot bread can be made for breakfast

either the washing or the ironing, al
though it does make ones waist look
huge. No one who is fashionable minds
this however. for it is the intention of
the new fashion to give as much size to
the waist line it can in order to de-
crease the seeming size of the hips.
Heavy linen is also attractive, but it is
