The Frontier Woman . . .
Grandma Never Had Ready-Mixes
By BLANCHE SPANN PEASE, Homemaking Editor
Pumpkin pie is a traditional
favorite come November, and the
holiday season of Thanksgiving
is approaching.
Here is a suggestion for a
pumpkin pie with something ex
tra which is sure to make a hit:
Make a nine-inch pastry shell.
For the filling, combine 3/4 cup
brown sugar, Vz teaspoon salt, one
teaspoon cinnamon, Vz teaspoon
ginger, 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg 11/4
cups cooked pumpkin.
Combine two tablespoons or
ange juice, two eggs (beaten),
1 1/4 cups hot mdlk, one teaspoon
grated orange rind, Vz cup chop
ped nuts. Stir into the pumpkin
mixture. Pour into unbaked pie
shell- Bake at 425 F. 10 minutes.
Reduce heat to 350 F. and bake
40 minutes longer.
To test whether a pumpkin pie
is done, insert a salver knife into
the center of the pie. When the
knife comes out clean, the pie is
done.
To add aip to your favorite
mincemeat pie, try adding chop
per, fresh apple to the filling.
Or try adding some drained
crushed pineapple. That is a good
taste flavor, too.
APPLE AND CABBAGE SALAD
Dice tart red-skinned apples
and combine with about equal
quantities of finely shredded cab
bage. Mix with salad dressing.
Cream dressing seasoned with
grated horseradish goes especial
ly well with this combination.
Serve at once on lettuce leaves.
Diced apples especially with
the red skins left on, are excel
lent in many kinds of fruit salads.
The apples give the crisp texture
often needed, particularly with
canned fruits.

Mrs. Harold Osborn,
Dorsey, Wins Subscription—
Dear Frontier Woman:
I had intended many weeks ago
to write and give Hallowe’en
party hints and here Hallowe’en
’is upon us, and if this letter miss
es the wastebasket, it will be late
enough for Thanksgiving.
So I will try to give a few
Thanksgiving helps. I? you are
planning to have a group in for
dinner, lots of things can be done
ahead of time as there are so
many salads one can prepare
ahead of time.
Pies can be made and put in
the freezer. Isn’t that different
from grandmother’s Thanksgiv
ing day? She had to start in the
morning to prepare the whole
meal as she had no way of
keeping things during those
years.
We really have so many con
veniences now we should never
complain even if we still could
add a few more helpful gadgets
to our kitchen.
I find this cranberry salad—or
some call it relish—a very helpful
dish to have on hand.
CRANBERRY SALAD
Take one package of cranber
ries,, wash and grind. Put two
oranges (peeled) through the food
chopper. Then core four nice ap
ples (need not be peeled) and put
through food chopper. Cover
cranberries, oranges and apples
with \Vt. to two cups sugar, de
pending on how sweet you like
things. Let stand several hours or
overnight. Then add to the fol
lowing: Two packages of gelatine,
one raspberry and one cherry fla
vor, mix. When cool, put in cran
berry mixture and add one small
can crushed pineapple. This keeps
for a week or more—if you can
keep the family out of it.
You can serve this on a lettuce
leaf if you care to and put a
spoonful of your favorite salad
dresing on it. My family likes to
eat this salad without any dress
ing.
As I have said before, times
have changed since grandmother’s
first Thanksgiving day. A pud
ding was always something we
had at Thanksgiving and Christ
have taken their place. But nev
mas, but now ready-mix puddings
ertheless an Englishman will still
love a pudding. Here is a favorite
that wre have used in our family
a good many years.
(Editor’s note: I’ll save Mrs.
Osborn’s pudding recipe for next
week, as we haven’t enough space
for it in this issue.)
SAYS SANDHILL SAL
Human nature may change but
don’t count on it during our life
time.
Often our today’s troubles are
due to what we didn’t do yester
day.
