Phone Lines Dull in Spring
By BLANCHE SPANN PEASE, Homemaklng Editor
Hi there, all you busy people!
Even the country telephones
are strangely quiet these days.
Everyone has so much to do.
Gardens are being encouraged
and coaxed, the flower lovers
have admired tulips for weeks
now, and are now carefully
watching the iris hoping it won’t
freeze and blast the high hopes of
the iris lovers.
Some of the glad fanciers are
still planting glads and will until
the first of June, so that they’ll
have later glad blossoms coming
on.
Most of the farm women like to
o cook with sour cream both be
cause it is so handy and also be
cause the results are absolutely
delicious.
I’ll pass along a recipe for Old
Fashioned Sugar Cookies made
with cream.
O
OLD FASHIONED SUGAR
COOKIES
One and one-half cups sugar,
iy4cups of butter, one teaspoon
vanila, two eggs % teaspoon so
da, Vi teaspoon nutmeg, two tea
spoons baking powder, 3% cups
flour, one cup sour cream and a
dash of salt.
Cream together the sugar and
butter. Add vanilla and beaten
eggs, mix thoroughly. Sift the so
da, baking powder, nutmeg and
salt with the flour and add alter
nately with the cream. Roll out
Vi-inch thick on slightly floured
board and cut with a two-inch
cookie cutter. Place on greased
baking sheets and sprinkle with
sugar. Bake in a moderately hot
oven of 425 F. for 10 minutes.
CREAM DELIGHT SALAD
Here’s a new salad made with
sour cream that you’ll all want
to try.
One package of lemon gelatin,
two cups boiling water, one tea
spoon salt, one teaspoon sugar,
two tablespoons lemon juice, one
red apple (diced), one package
(3-oz)cream cheese, % cup wal
nut meats (broken), one cup sour
cream.
Dissolve gelatin in boiling wa
ter and add salt and 1 tablespoon
lemon juice. When slightly thick
ened, combine apples, sugar and
remaining lemon juice with one
half of the gelatin. Chill. Whip
the remaining gelatin with the
cream cheese, with beater, until
it is creamy. Add nuts, spread
over firm lemon gelatin layer
and chill one hour. Serve in small
squares on greens topped with
sour cream.

Dear Mrs. Pease:
We’ve had such wonderful days
this week. Its nice for getting at
the h o u s e c 1 e a n i n g . On the
farm one has to get at it early
before the rush season is upon us.
We know how it can blizzard
even in the late spring so we can
wonder, what next! It’s got my
husband thinking about ordering
plants. It really seems to be like
spring. I intend to get a letter
off before the rush.
No we can’t complain about this
winter. The letter in last week’s
paper about the 1948-‘49 winter
brought back memories to many.
The first blizzard of November 18
came so early that winter seemed
so long. And so much snow!
We had been married in 1948
so it was our first winter and a
real one! I was pregnant that
winter and it was quite a worry.
I went to stay in town several
times. I never got snowbound as
the night our baby came I had
gone in to stay that day as the
forecast sounded bad.
However, when our second ba
by was to arrive, I got snowed in.
It started to snow late one night
so the next morning I was to go
and stay in town. But by the next
morning we couldn’t get out. But
I had to get in that weekend af
ter all, a week earlier than ex
pected.
We had a neighbor who offered
to take me in with their jeep, if
it was necessary, just that morn
ing, I’d said, “No, I won’t be go
ing in, I feel fine.”
So thanks to them and all the
helpers who got out with their
tractors, I made it to town in
time.
Now our family is growing up
so fast! If they didn’t, we’d worry
that something’s wrong. But
sometimes I wish I could keep the
last a baby. Times are so short
that they are a baby. I’d like to
pass along something I read with
which I heartily agree, “Keep
the cookie jar and love handy in
the home”.
