WHY NOT USE YOUR
PORCH FOR INFORMAL
MEALS IN SUMMER?
BY SUSAN ELLEN DODGE

| have becH wondering why peoples
who have houses with fairly gener-
Gus porehes and grounds do not
make MORE use of them for enter
tanning their friends. In Europe no
matter how little the garden or
porch may be, during summer
meas for the family aud friends
are served there whenever the wealth
et permits. In other words, Euro.
peans live as much out of doors as
they can, while they can.
In the past its lack of popularity
in this country no doubt was due to
the extra work this eating out of
doors would make for the house
wife who did not have servants.
But today with so many of the small
electrical appliances that may be
used anywhere and at any time, such
porch dining is very simple indeed.
/ enjoy my garden and porch SO
much that | entertain out of doors
and even serve meals to the family
there. At first my ncighhors laugh
ed at me, but now everyone of them
IS doimg il, which proves that as Il
general rule most of us need but
very tiny push to get out of the rut
Of the habitual way of doing things.
When the garden is too sunny the
porch is a wonderful place to en-
terrain or serve family meals, par
ticnlarly if one had the foresight
10 have electrical convenience outlet
installed upon the porch into which
one can attach the electrical water
kettle, grill, percolatoy or toaster
depending upon how big meal one
wishes to prepare.
We often have our SUNDAY morn
ing breakfast on the porch lust to
vary things bit. Usually this meal
consists of some fresh fruit, cream.
ed chipped beef on toast or waffles
and coffee. 70 save myself all un.
necessary trouble | load everything
ON the tea wagon and wheel it out
onto the porch. / fill the pcrco-
lator with water and coffee in the
Kitchen, prepare the fruit there aud
also the waffle batter so that the
only ingredients brought ont on the
porch are those need to make the
cream sauce for the beef.
