The Frontier Woman —
Grand Island Reader Laments That
Spring Was So Late This Year
By BLANCHE SPANN PEASE
Hit there, all you hustling
folks! Lots to do these days,
huh? Homemakers are very
busy, I know.
The problem of using left
overs is ever with us—but if
we don’t use them we are wast
ing, and most
of our budgets
can’t stand
waste. We
have to save
all the pen
nies and food
we can. If you
have some
leftover cake
or cookies, use
them in Brown
Betty ice box
Blanche Spann c£,^c toasted
with a sweet
Peat* topping for
dessert. If you have a way to
use some leftover foods, why
not write and tell us about it.
Take leftover bread for in
stance. Most folks use it for
stuffings or in meat loaf, for
French to'ast or in Brown Betty,
to coat croquettes or in them,
and to coat fried chops. That
leftover rice, noodles or spa
ghetti, or macaroni can often
be used in casserole dishes, sal- ]
ads, meats or cheese loafs.
If there is cereal left over
from breal fast, the cooked type, !
you needn't throw it out, Fry in
slices, or put it in meat loaf or
patties to stretch the meat con
tent, or make a sweet pudding
out of it. Most cookbooks offer
recipes for using cereals.
If you have some canned or
cooked fruit left, it finds an
ideal place in upside down
cake. It's good in quick breads,
too, or yeast breads, or served
as fruit cup. Or thickened in
fruit sauces, or in a gelatin
dessert or salad. And in short
cake—mmmmmmm! i
If you have left over vege
tables such as lima beans, corn,
peas, carrots, string beans—you
►
can use them in meat and vege
table pies for savory goodness.
Or add them to the soup you
have simmering before serving,
or try them in stew, or stuffed
peppers or stuffed tomatoes,
maybe. Or make a cheese sauce
to serve over the leftover vege
tables to dress them up and give
them a new look and flavor.
If you have cooked leafy veg
etables left over they can be
creamed or made into a souffle
or omelet with eggs or they can
even be added to meat patties.
Or in meat loaf or soup they can
often make a nice combination
of flavors and foods.

Subscription Winners—
Mrs. Carrie Brophy, 1408 W.
John St., Grand Island, wins a
3-month’s subscription to The
Frontier.
Dear Mrs. Pease:
As you have been asking for
more letters and recipes, here I
come. Yes, it is hard to believe
but May is over and what a cold
spring. Everything has been so
far behind all the time. The iris j
are not as pretty as usual this 1
year, they are so small as to
blossoms. The peonies should
have been out but are 10 days,
1 weeks or more later than us
ual. I am afraid they won’t be
as nice or as large as they
should be.
The gardens are nice, though,
and strawberries are in full
bloom. I have tomatoes in
bloom.
Well, I will include some rec
ipes:
CHERRY FIE
One and one-half cups all
purpose flour, Ml cup lard, \
teaspoon salt, V4 cup ice cold
milk. For the filling use 3 cups
of frozen cherries or fresh cher
ries, 1 cup granulated sugar, if
the cherries are very sour use
Vi cup sugar more, V* teaspoon
salt, Vi cup cherry juice, 1 tea
spoon butler, Vi teaspoon al
mond extract, 4Vi tablespoons
flour.
BOSTON BAKED BEANS
Two cups cooked beans, navy
beans, 2 teaspoons salt, 1 cup
boiling water, or the water
in which the beans were cooked,
one-third pound thin sliced salt
ed pork, y4 cup dark syrup, \
teaspoon mustard, % teaspoon
chili powder. Put beans in bak
ing dish, first a layer of beans,
and then a layer of salted pork,
then beans again and last a lay
er of salted pork. Bake 2V2
hours. Don’t take off cover.
These will be a real Boston
baked bean.
SUGAR COOKIES
Mix thoroughly Vi cup short
ening, Vi cup of sugar, 1 egg.
Stir in 1 tablespoon of milk, or
cream, 1 teaspoon vanilla, or
lemon or a combination of both,
sifted together. IV4 cup sifted
flour, 1 teaspoon cream of tar
tar, and Mi teaspoon soda, J/4
teaspoon salt. Chill dough, roll
thin, cut in any desired shape
and place on lightly greased
cookie sheet. Bake until deli
cately brown. Oven should be
425 degrees F. Bake 5 to 7 min
utes. Makes about 3 Mi to 4 doz
en cookies.
I am enclosing some hints al
so:
If you place a slice of bread
Ion half a muskmelon, it won’t
' smell up the refrigerator. Put a
slice of bread in with anything
that has an odor and it will kill
the odor.'
A paste of cornstarch and wa
ter will remove grease spots
from wallpaper. Let it remain
on the spots until dry, then
brush off.
To reheat biscuits or bread,
put in a wet paper bag, tie up
tightly and heat in an oven.
Save the keys from coffee
cans or other cans. They will
come in handy this summer
when eating roasting ears. Put
one key in each end of the ear
of corn, making a handle while
eating the corn off the cob.
Rubbing alcohol will remove
white rings from varnished
tables or anything else.
Putting a little ground mus
tard in dish water will remove
the fish odor from dishes and
other articles you have used.
If you starch your ironing
board cover stiff your clothes
will iron much nicer and your
cover will last longer.
Hope some of these hints and
recipes will be useable.
MRS. CARRIE BROPHY.
