What we need to do most is plan ahead and shop in advance, as much as possible. IE there are guests for dinner, plan a menu which will leave you free to enjoy their company, one ' which can be served simply. For" instance, if you are elect­ ed to meet the bus and chauf­ feur the Institute speaker to the meeting, then bring her home for dinner, leave everything ready: Chilled fruit juice with tiny cheese biscuits, a casserole of chicken (pastry top) that re­ heats in 20 minutes, small peeled tomatoes rolled in minced pars­ ley and nuts, shelled peas you can cook in 12 minutes, fresh chilled berries and cream with sugar cookies for dessert. Maybe the whole family are going to the garden party where they will have afternoon tea! With this in mind, plan a light supper: Cream of potato-cheese soup, tomato and cucumber sand­ wiches, cherry upside-down cake [and tea. I There are occasions when you I drive to a meeting twenty miles j or so away and leave the family i to put the finishing touches to 1 their own supper. For such meals, we suggest sliced cold meat, tomato jelly with lots of vegetables, macaroni salad with minced green onion, berry tarts and cold chocolate milk. You may be one of the many homemakers who spend a good deal of time outdoors helping with the harvest or picking ber­ ries. If unexpected company ar­ rives and you have precooked a shank for stew and there is not sufficient — add a can of oxtail soup or make a few dumplings point.’* A donation of ^5 was instead of pouring in extra voted to the .Canadian National Water.
