HOUSEUIVES WOULD

BY WEEKLY SHOPPING

Each Florida housewife can get
an extra vacation of more than
a week from household activities
this year.
A little more than seven full
days in the 365 could be added to
the leisure time of every home
maker in the state if she would

habits, a study conducted by the
Servel Homemaker's Institute
reveals.
The research disclosed that
most Of Florida's 5l6,253 house
wives shop for groceries every
day. staggering total of 49,
9l6,092 hours, or approximately
7,t45,7S5 days. By shopping only
twice a week for food, which
now is possible because modern
household refrigeratorS can hold
more than a weeks supply of
food at a time, each housewife
could reduce grocery shopping
time by half. Whereas every day
shopping requires an estimated

The Servel study also revealed
other flaws in Women's food
shopping habits. For example, Sc
per cent waste valuable energy
by concentrating grocery purch-
asses into Friday and Saturday,
althou n they could more easily
shop during the first three days
OF TIE week When stores are less
crowded. One reason advanced
for the housewives adhering to
weekend shopping habits is that

that modern refrigeration keeps

In the April installment Of the
magazines new food department,
the editor explains that crea7
tive cook must know how to
cook from principles, rather than
from formulas .~-i Sd. fs1
The first principle" she says,
is that the same basic recipe
,can,be favored in different ways.
A change in flavor is the easiest
change to make" AS an example,
she suggests that nothing WilI do
20 much with SO little For de-
serts than Jamaica rum. 81
Principle Two, the editor adds,
IS increasing the richness of a
basic recipe" She points out
nat as simple 4 thing as junket
can be made an elegant desert
by substituting cream for milk
and sherry for vanilla.
AS a third principle Of crea-
tive cooking, this expert recon-
mends the combination Of two or
more recipes to form d brand
new effect. Example: Top hot
gingerbread with hot apple sauce
made with brown sugar Cnstead
of white), and then douse the
whole thing with lots Of whipped
cream Favored with sugar, rum
and lemon tests.
