Frosted Fruit
Decorative Touches
For the Table,;
Wonder Fudge
By Violet Faulkner

Christmas dinner is always
something special whether it's
just for the family or a houseful
of company. There are dozens of
elaborate things you can do to
the menu to depict the Christmas
theme. but we want to give you
some ideas that are quick and
easy. Time is at premium on
this day of days, and especially
so if you're expecting extras for
dinner.
One of the easiest ways of
dressing up the menu is via the
salad. You can make these to-
mato aspic trees while you're
waiting for the morning coffee to
brew. Empty a can of tomato
aspic and follow directions on the
label for melting. When it's
melted, pour into cone-Shaped
paper cups that you can steady
by standing upright in small fruit
glasses. Put the aspic back in
the refrigerator to re-jell. At
serving time. peel the paper cup
away from the aspic gently so as
not to break the mold. Place
each tree on a lettuce leaf and
use touches of mayonnaiSe to re-
semble tree ornaments.
Hard Souce Cutouts
To brighten up the steamed
pudding with a Christmas-yI
decoration make your favorite
hard sauce and use it for cutouts
like this: Spread the hard sauce
mixture, while soft, in 2-3 por-I
tions on wax paper or smooth
aluminium foil, being sure mixture
is about "a inch thick in each
portion. Now put it back in the
refrigerator to get very cold and
firm. Get out your small cookie
cutters and any additional garnish
you choose, such as Sprig of
holly or red candies. Take the
hardened hard sauce mixture
from the refrigerator and let it
stand a minute or two at room
temperature before you try to do
any cutting. Dip the cutters into
hot water, shake off excess mois-
ture, and cut into hard sauce.
Lift cutout from wax paper with
q clean metal spatula and place
on the pudding. Repeat, until
you have the number needed. The
cutouts can be made ahead of
time and stored. If you should
find it difficult to remove the cut
outs from the paper, dip the tip
of the spatula in hot water, and
gently push under cutout.
Frosty Fruit Bowls
There1l be plenty of fruit for
the holidays oranges, tan
gerines, Emperor grapes, grape
fruit, persimmons, bananas. pome-
granates. apples and pears. For
showy display select the finest
and give it a frosty touch. Wash
and dip each fruit in egg whites
beaten to a froth. Then sprinkle
literally with granulated sugar
Let stand until dry, then arrange
in your loveliest compete dish OF
bowl. Tuck in a few fresh green
leaves for accent. Flank with
candles. In the evening when the
candlelight flickers on the glisten.

In New Orleans they know well
the value of a good fritter-
whether intended to accompany a
special course, CT to be used as a
light and toothsome dessert.
The batter that the Creole cooks
make for their fritters is especially
delicious and, when properly
cooked, comes out a crisp and
golden brown. Beat the yolks OF
2 eggs we'll and then add a cup Of
flour, beating all until very light,
Add a tablespoon of melted butter
and 2 tablespoons of lemon juice,

eggs, beaten to a stiff froth, and
then dip into this your chosen
fruit. Immerse it well, and then
lift out with large cooking spoon.

how wreaths had their beginning.
The elves and fairies who lived in
the holly bushes made the wreaths
for the doors of homes where peo-
pie had been kind to them. Then
on Christmas eve they knew where
to leave gifts and good wishes.
In Denmark the housewives bake
a great variety of cookies, for ac-
cording to an old Danish legend, if
a visitor calls at Christmas and
eats nothing, he will carry the
Christmas spirit away from the
house.
And it's our wish that your holi-
day season be happy one.
