The post holiday season brings a
lull in our activities. That is true
nowhere as much as in the kitchen.
The housewife who has been trying
to excel her own efforts in prepar-
ing holiday meals for augmented
families is likely to sit back and
serve the folks just anything that
comes to her mind.
For some reason, it is a season of
Ileftovers, too. Well, we can't throw
away everything we don't eat, but
1T is worth our while to make our
leftover dishes tempting. 1t makes
lit more pleasurable to pare the
! food budget when we do.
Put Them in Solitary
Most families are finicky about
heated-up foods, but here are some
DISCUSSES you can use.
In the first place, leftovers will
| be more palatable if you are care
full when clearing up after meal
Be sure to transfer leftovers to
small, individual containers before
putting them into the refrigerator

and stuffing in small dishes Rinse
vegetables to free them of sauce OF

Wrap leftover breads in waxed
paper before putting it into the
bread box They can be put to
many uses. Rolls biscuits and muf-
fins can be reheated five minutes

moderate oven.

ed foods-really a party dish.
Bread Puddings
People are inclined to frown on
bread pudding, but they shouldn't.
1t can be varied in several ways,
all of them as tasty as any pudding
Should be. Elsewhere in this story
is a fine recipe; here are four
pleasant variations:

sugar, cook very slowly, stirring
until sugar is brown Add milk,
eggs, salt and vanilla. Pour over
bread and bake.
