Try Giving Jam’s, Jellies
B> BLANCHE SPANN PEASE. Homemakinff Editor
Well, here's Christmas breath
down our necks once again.
Only a very few days left and
most of us still with a million
things to do.
Did you get caught short on
Christmas gifts with the money
not lasting as long as the list?
Grin Well, likely you weren’t
the only ones If so, take a look
at what you have and can share.
Try giving some of your jams
and jellies to those who haven’t
time to make them, pass along
a jar of your special pickles or
preserves, or churn up some
cream and give some pats of
butter as a gift.
If folks live in town, and don’t
have them, these things are just
as good as gold to them. When
you have them yourself you
sort of take them for granted.
Jellies can be wrapped in tissue
or foil, if you have it.
Some farm folks share their'
home cured bacon, a jar of
cream for whipping, some nut
meats from nut trees in their
own yard, and let me tell you
folks, black walnuts are pure
gold! I have even known folks!
with lots of lard to give pounds
of lard or biscuit mix that they
had mixed up themselves. And
believe me the recipients were
delighted for such gifts repre
spnicri real money to them.
Popcorn Makes
Welcome Gift—
Popcorn balls make nice fam
ily gifts If you want to add
just a bit to it, shape them
around wax paper wrapped hard
candies, and roll them in
crushed hard Christmas candy.
That makes them special, as
does the addition of shelled pea
nuts to the popcorn balls.
Popcorn is a very welcome
gift. And it is even more
Christmasy if you put the shel
led corn in muslin bags sewed to ;
represent Christmas socks. An j
awful lot of good eating can be
made from a pound of popcorn
that you raised yourself and
shared with some at Christmas.
It’s a nice way of saying Merry
Christmas to the folks who don’t
have any. j
l nese puurdpyit'
are a recipe endorsed for me
many years ago by Better Homes
and Gardens. Perhaps you’d like
to try them.
PINEAPPLE POPCORN BALLS
One-third cup white Karo sy
rup, 2 cups sugar, 1 Vi cups juice
from pineapple, 1 tablespoon
lemon juice, 1 teaspoon vanilla
extract, few drops yellow food
coloring, 5 quarts popped corn.
Dissolve syrup and sugar in
pineapple juice and bring to
boil. Boil slowly without stir- |
ring to firm ball stage. (240 F
to 242 F.) Remove from stove, ;
add lemon juice, vanilla and
coloring. Return to stove and
boil exactly 1 minute. Pour at
once over crisp corn and form
into balls.
Got vour packages all wrap
ped. Be different this year If
you can get some shining blactt
paper, use bright red ribbon
with it. Sometimes a box can
be wrapped in plain paper and
then you can use decorative
seals, made especially for cor
ners to form sort of chest look.
Or try using green and silver
for wrappings. Pink and silver
are so pretty and how about la
vender tissue and silver ribbon.
You don’t necessarrily have to
use the old traditional Christmas
colors you know.
Use the precious and expen
sive foil papers for the small
packages and tissue and wraps
of other types for the large
ones. You might tie in a stick
of gum or a life saver or an all
day sucker for the children.
If you want to make a small
gift just a bit more so, for some
adult, fasten a handkerchief
spread fan fashion on the out
;ide of the package with ]
;cotch tape. It dresses up the
package and makes the gift a
.arger one.

What a thoughtful gift for someone you
love ... so handy ... so handsome ... so
useful every day of the year!
Mom will thank you for the convenience
of her kitchen extension —in her favorite
color! Sister will be thrilled with her smart
bedroom phone for those “personal" calls.
Dad, too, will like his own extension phone
in his workshop or den.
You can give extension phones to friends
or relatives wherever they may be living and
arrange to have the modest charges billed
to you. We’ll be glad to gift-wrap your phone,
and installation can be made before or after
Christmas, as you wish. Call your telephone
business office now for details.
