Verona. Italy Move

Mrs. A. B. F., Alexandria
On two previous overseas
tours as Army personnel we
have occupied Government
owned and furnished quarters.
In May we leave for Verona,
Italy and we have been in
formed that we must make
all arrangements for quarters
and bring our own furnish
ings from the States to in
clude everything except
plumbing fixtures.
If any of you readers have
been assigned to Verona,
could you please let us know
whether to wait to order a
stove and refrigerator through
the Post Exchange after ar
irving in Verona, or if we
should take these two items
with us, would it be best to
buy gas or electric?
We inherited some lovely

should leave this furniture in
storage here rather than be
cramped in a small apart
ment.

Hopeless Chef

Mrs. r. B. D., Alexandria
Will someone please tell me
how they prepare good meals
for their families when they
are poor cooks? I have been
married 10 years and al
though my family has sur
vived, meal time is simply a
task when it could be the
most pleasant family time.
I have sincerely tried to
like cooking and even took
lessons. I feel my husbands
fastidiousness is partly re-
sponsible. as he judges meals
by those he would get in the
very best hotels.
= Then his mealtime is very
trregular-anywhere from 7
to ii pm. am always willing
and happy to fix his meal
whenever he feels he can eat,
but it's hard to fix an ap-
petizing meal for the third
time in one night. He is the
type Of person who is a ball
Of fire during the day and
has to let his nerves settle
down before he can eat at
night.
I feed the children at 6
pm. and l eat between 7 and
8 pm. If / just could like to
cook. it would be a different
matter. He doesn't like, cas-
seroles or hashes. but wants
steak. roast primes of beef.
Right now I have a huge ham
from which we had had slices
twice. and ! don't know how
else to serve it.
Is there anyone else like
me? Up. S.-My talents lie in
the music and art fields so
I'm not a total loss but I'd
like to be better rounded in
the homemaking area.)

tee about records of the Chi

She said she had none Of the

she knows Red Waterfall. Mr..
