Post

A reader brings up this ques-
ton about the training of her
children: Should they be taught
to wait until every one at the table
has been served and their mother
begins eating? Their father thinks
it is bad table manners for them
to begin eating right away. told
him when we're out ourselves
we're not expected to wait for
every one to be served before
we start. He thinks this is diff
ferent."
If they are very young children
who eat slowly, they are as a rule
served first, and encouraged to
begin eating at once so as not
to keep every one waiting at the
end of the course. Older children,
however, should never be served
first. The general rule is that no
one is expected to wait longer
than for one or two others to
be served. before beginning to
eat.

from a past issue of the RICH.
This came originally from Mrs.
j. w. P, Washington: This rec
ipe makes about eight large eggs
and "a smaller ones. Of course,
the eggs can be made any size
desired, and the recipe can be
enlarged or cut down just SO the
mixture is kept stiff enough to
roll into shape and hold that
shape.
Five pounds powdered Ak sugar,
/ pound nuts, in shell, shelled out;
1s-ounce jar maraschino cherries
y pound butter or substitute, l
orange. grated, skin and juice; !
lemon, grated, skin and juice.
Mix all ingredients together in
Guiding cherry juice. Roll into
shape of an egg and place on
waxed paper to dry out slightly,
A few hours will do.
Place bitter chocolate in double
boiler; keep hot. Put egg on a
tablespoon, dip chocolate over I'M
til covered, the bottom does not
get covered; slide off onto waXed
paper and dry. Several hours for
the chocolate to harden. For the
icing use the following.
Four sugar, about one pound
to cover IS eggs, little water and
flavoring. Vegetable coloring. A
cake decorator works fine. Any
number of different designs can
be used. I find tall leaves like
iris, with dots of color to resemble
blooms, quite pretty.

WINE SAUCE AND
EGGS GOLDENROD?
From Mrs. J. H. DEL,
WdShinqton.)

First, I would like to say a great
big thank you to all who replied
to my request for a candy recipe
and cooky recipe just before
Christmas. The candy suggested
by Miss A. W. turned out to be
just the recipe that I had been
wanting. And we liked the others
that I have tried, too.
Now I have another request.
Does any one know how to make
a wine sauce to serve over pound
cake? I think that what I can re-
member my mothers making
called for butter and corn starch
to thicken it. What else, and how
do you go about it? I have hunted
through several cookbooks in vain
Want to get more milk and
eggs into the kiddies? Well, with
Easter coming up, hard boiled
eggs will be plentiful and perhaps
goldenrod eggs would entice young
appetites. Use one egg and about
one cup white sauce for each serv-
ing. Cut the white up into the
sauce when it is thickened ano
with fork mash the yolk ano
sprinkle over each serving.
