Ny dear Mrs. Housewife:

know he was. And I know Just
what mood you're in. You're feel
ing happy and gay and you're sit
ting high. high on the hilltop and
shouting, Come on IN everybody
and let's have open house on New
Years Day. OK. Let'sl
Let's bring out the moist, rich
fruit cake that looks like a picture
and tastes like a delicious morsel
from heaven. Of course fruit cake
tastes much better when accom-
panied by wine or punch. Here's
good recipe for Gingerale punch
for IL persons:
Add 1 bunch mint to the juice
of lemons and cup of sugar.
Bruise mint and let stand several
hours on Ice. Squeeze through
cloth and add / lemon and or
ange in thin half-slices and pints
of ginger ale. Garnish with mint
busted with powdered sugar.
And what would the holiday
season be without eggnog? Well,
we have a prize recipe for the
grandest egg-nog you ever tasted.
We give you this recipe from the
House of Flowers"
8 eggs
l full cup sugar
/ teaspoon vanilla
IL pints milk
" pint whipping cream
nutmeg
rum
Beat yolks, vanilla, and sugar
until smooth and creamy. Pour in
11s ponies of Rum to each person.
Beat well. Add cream and milk.
stir well. Add stiffly beaten egg
whites and fold in very lightly.
Add a dash of nutmeg to each
glass and serve very cold. Ervie
says you know what to do with it
then. He cautions me to be sure
to have the egg beaten clean and
dry to beat the whites.
Something new IN the way of
Canapes:
Spread tiny waters with peanut
butter and top them with a square
of crisp bacon, and serve piping
hot.
Cream cheese. highly seasoned
and with chopped olives, may be
rolled into finger shaped morsels
and covered with prepared Chinese
noodles.
And Cheese Popcorn. 1t is the
latest, handsomest pop corn you
ever saw, and is treated with a
simply divine yellow cheese.
Drief beef spread with cheese
and suitably rolled, won't be hard
to take.
Hard cooked eggs stuffed with
red or black caviar are hard to re-
sist. Sections of lemon should be
with them, and a touch of onion is
always good judgment as well as
good taste.
These canapes will taste twice
as good if you serve Al Morton's
smooth Glover Club Cocktails.
Those of you who have tasted AIS
Clover Club know what it's like.
Those of you who have not, have
a treat in ST J for you. Here it is:
AL Morton's Glover Club
4 jiggers of gin
1IS jigger lemon juice
u jigger grenadine
" jigger egg white
Frappe in cocktail shaker. Strain
and serve in cocktail glasses.
When we asked Jack Martin for
his recipe of his favorite holidey
drink, he was very modest and told
us that he wasn't much of mixer
and that he never tasted his drinks
after he mixed them, ct cetera.
Well Jack, I know lot of people
that would be perfectly willing to
be your official Easter" Here is
his favorite recipe:
Jacks Tom and Jerry
Beat the whites of IL eggs till
very stiff. Beat the yolks till very
thin. Mix together and add spices,
nutmeg, cinnamon, allspice, and
Jamaica Rum to taste. Stir well
and then add sugar to taste. When
correct, this is consistency Of light
batter. Serve with hot water and
either brandy or whiskey.
Wishing you all very, very,
HAPPY NEW YEAR, with love,
from
Anne
