Bird's-Nest Pudding.

On each dessert plate or at each
plate at the beginning of dinner. place
q small bird 8 nest OF candied orange
peel in which there are some candy
eggs. The eggs can be made Of un-
cooked fondant, rolled in ground
pecan or walnut meats or Dipped in
chocolate. Make the fondant by mix
ing an unbeaten white Of egg, pinch
OF cream tartar, two tablespoons of
cream and enough confectioners'
sugar to make a stiff cream. Then
mold into little eggs and roll in the
nuts or else chill for two hours after
molding and dip in melted chocolate.
To make the nests make Candied
orange peel as follows: Cut the thin
outer peel of two or three oranges
into shreds and soak for "a hours in
cold salt water. with two tablespoons
of salt to d quart of water. Rinse,
cover with fresh cold water and boil
until tender. Make strip of two
cups of sugar to a cup and q quarter
of water. and when ii boils add the
peel and simmer gently until the peel
looks clear and the strip thickens.
Take out a little at time and roll
in granulated sugar. Let it dry and
form into little nests.

Planning the Weeks Food.

served more frequently than during
some weeks. and this is deliberate
because of it's appetiZing properties.
There is an innovation in the vege-
table dinner served on Monday. One
popular restaurant in New York is
responsible for the suggestion. Almost
every one has had the experience OF
growing tired of the sameness OF the
average vegetable plate. 1t is surprlS-
ing what the addition of apple sauce
or some other fresh stewed fruit Will
do to give zest and character to such
q plate. That it also adds TO the food
value, of course, goes without saying.
Although it is early for straw
berries, except in certain sections of
the country, the weeks plan includes
a judicious use Of this popular fruit.
They are served steWed for Friday
luncheon and this means that they
/ will go farther" than if the raw fruit
is served.
Strawberries also appear in the
form Of a meringue. Here again a
modest amount may be made to do
considerable work. Only once during
the week are the fresh berries served
with cream.
Because of the more nourishinc
breakfasts, the luncheonS for the week
are decidedly simple. There is no
special main dish" except On Tues
day whan cottage cheese bats with
nuts take the place of such dish.
Other lurch~a content themselves
with hot broth and eitt err vegetable
salad or a fruit sauce.

There may be two reasons for this.

the other hand, the grape juice alone

In serving new potatoes in cream,

Readers of 1.-THE Enchanted April
will remember the omelette served at
luncheon which was bursting at each
end with green peas. This is d
good hint for any one who plans a
vegetable omelette. The omelette with
green peas served for Sunday morning
breakfast should do just that burst
ing agreeably."
To prepare such an omelette have
the vegetables cooked and nicely
seasoned before folding over the ONE
lette. Part of the peas should then
be folded into the omelette and the
others allowed to serve as Il border.
Any tender Spring vegetables may be
used in this fashion. 1t is also good
way in which to use bits of fresh left
