Festive Baking
Hello Homemakers! Is your kitchen
filled with the exciting aroma of
mincemeat, plum pudding, and other
good things? The other day, a young
friend remarked, “You know, it seems
to me that Christmas is just around
the corner!’!’ Doesn’t that sum up the
enthusiasm that every homemaker
feels at the beginning of the holiday
season?*****
Your plan should be to prepare
tempting foods and still have time for
your favourite war work during the
busy Christmas season. Nowadays,
women can prepafe well ahead if they
watch for tips on careful storage. You
can make holiday cooking an easy
task—if anyone can call it a task to
make these colorfully-fruited and
tastefully-spiced holiday delicacies.*****
A new way to use an old favourite
is to make Mincemeat Roll Pudding.
A fluffy biscuit dough variation is the
basic ingredient, and it combines es
pecially-well with spicy mincemeat.
This mincemeat has lots in its flavour
—it can be made quickly, is baked
quickly, and it is so good! ! , •• ■.* * * * *
Harvest Bread is a new quickbread
success for the festive days ahead.
Sliced thin and spread with butter, it
may even be used as a simple dessert.
Made by the muffin method, it is
ready for baking in a few minutes.

Corn Muffins are ‘tops’ at any meal,
with lots of calories so needed during
the winter months.****,*
