The hard cold facts are that

fully felt that a man who was
willing TO die bravelY for his

The Kisses of the Farmers
Daughter" are pretty much like
our own coconut kisses, perhaps
even a bit sweetef. The Brazilian
Longings" are little balls made OF
egg yolks and sugar and special
Brazilian meal. baked or rather
dried, in a cool oven. The transla-
ton of the name in Portuguese is
"Saudades," one of the saddest and
yet loveliest words to Brazilians. It.
covers a wide range of emotions,
the greatest of these nostalgia or
homesickness.
Little Mother-in-law Kisses"
vary from the above in that they
include lemon juice and coconut
among the ingredients and also
some Of the lemon rind. Sweet
Girl" is made Of manioc meal, rice
-four, ground peanuts, brown sugar
and eggs. 1t is baked in loaf form.
And as for the eye Of the Mother
in-law"-this calls for large pitted
prunes, which are filled with a
paste of confectioners' sugar and
egg whites for the "eyeban," into
which is set a pupil of egg yolk ana
sugar. These are nodded properly
into shape and inserted in the
pitted prunes.
