Plastic Helps Preserve Pictures
By BLANCHE SPANN PEASE, Homemakins Editor
Have you invited guests for
Thanksgiving? If so, you’ll want
to enjoy your guests, the dinner
and the day, so get everything
done before hand that you pos
sibly can.
In this day of refrigerators,
deep freezes and such, it is pos
sible to do so much of the prepa
ration long enough before hand
so that you, too, will enjoy your
self.
For instance, your turkey may
be purchased and dressed and
frozen before hand. But you’ll
want to take it from the freezer
the day before so that it is tho
roughly thawed out.
If you’re serving a gelatin sal
ad, it can be made before hand.
If it's the green tossed type, the
greens can be washed and put
into the crisper ready for the last
minute tossing and for the dress
ing you prefer.
Celery can be cleaned and
crisped the day before and kept
in the crisper or in plastic bags.
Many types of dessert can be
made and frozen before hand, or
at least baked the day before.
You can use the ice box type
rolls, mixing the dough before
hand, or use the brown ’n’ serve
type. Or many ready-baked rolls
can be simply warmed in the ov
i . . "7
en before serving—and that in
cludes baked rolls from your
freezer.
Most vegetables can be pre
pared before hand, some can even
be cooked. It all depends on what
type you’re going to serve.
But whatever you plan for your
menu, be sure to do all possible
things on preceding days and that
! includes getting your home set to
rights as much as possible.
Give yourself time to set a
pretty table and fix a center
piece. And then enjoy the meal
along with the rest of the fam
ily.
Just remember that the one
thing you don’t want to do the
day before hand is stuff the tur
key. That isn’t considered safe.
Be sure to allow plenty of time
for getting the turkey done.

‘Cocoanut Fudge Balls’
Ideal for Holidays—
Spencer, Nebr.
Dear Mrs. Pease:
Have been going to write to
you for some time but, as usual,
it has been “Never do today what
you can put off until tomorrow”—
and you know tomorrow never
comes.
This nas been a good year here
for our gardens and field crops
for which I, for one, feel deeply
grateful to the Lord. It could
easily have been so different.
Since school is in session again
I thought perhaps the school
teachers, Sunday-school teachers
and mothers might all make use
of an idea which I used this
summer.
I used transparent plastic
paper (saran WTap) purchased
at the grocery store to cover
pictures for my children. Cut
the plastic paper one or more
inches larger than the picture to
be covered.
Use a very stiff cardboard for
the back of the picture. Stretch
the plastic paper tightly but
smoothly over the picture and se
cure the edges to the back with
Scotch tape. Paste a picture tab
in place and you have a very neat
picture which looks like it is un
der glass.
Since we will soon be making
cookies and other goodies for the
winter holidays, I will send a re
cipe for cocoanut fudge balls
which we think make for good
nibbling:
COCOANUT FUDGE BALLS
Cream Vz cup softened butter
and add one cup sugar and Vz tea
spoon salt, beating well. Add two
ounces melted chocolate, mixing
well. Add 1/4 cup milk and IVz
cups sifted flour alternately. Stir
in 1 3/4 cups rolled oats. Form
dough into small balls and bake
on an ungreased baking sheet at
350 F. 10 to 12 minutes. Makes
six dozen cookies.
To frost, blend 2Vz cups sifted
confectioners sugar with 1/4 cup
of milk and 1/4 teaspoon pepper
mint extract. Dip the cooled
cookies into frosting using two
forks. Then roll in cocoanut.
Place on waxed paper to set.

ture or other greens.

and sugar. Fold in pineapple and
cherries. Pour into freezing tray
of refrigerator. Freeze using di
rections for your refrigerator. Cut
