HomeMy WebLinkAboutThe Exeter Times-Advocate, 1969-01-09, Page 8, Getting back to work after such an unusually long Christmas break has been somewhat of a struggle for me. When the alarm chimed its not-so-cheery message Monday morning I was in no mood to rise and shine. One look outside convinced me it was another bad day, weatherwise, I think most people will agree that the holidays this year left much to be desired where weather was concerned, * At the Keller household, the Christmas vacation brought a mixture of problems. With husband in bed under the doctor's care from the day before Christmas until the following Saturday, it made Christmas a little lonesome for the rest of us, And with Santa down and out, the last minute duties were left to me and to my eldest son. Together we acted as elves and assembled the toys which needed assembling before Christmas morning, That's the reason for the wagon with the peculiar slant at our house. Christmas dinner took on a strange appearance, too. A minus-dad family council decided the festive meal should remain uncooked until the man of the house was able to enjoy it, so our Yuletide feast consisted of cheese pizza on motion of the children. The rest of the day was spent in caring for our ailing one and keeping as quiet as possible so as not to cause him undue stress. Our Christmas dinner was finally served during the weekend but somehow, it had lost its real impact. The wondrous Christmas bubble had burst and it was just another sumptuous dinner' * Actually it was during the meal we had a brief discussion about our great capacity in Canada to enjoy the very best life has to offer. When you think about it, most families can afford to eat moderately well, dress comfortably and live with a certain measure of dignity. Our children, for instance, have never known what it is like to be hungry or cold or homeless. In fact, our whole family is spoiled so badly that none of us really wants for anything we actually need. Maybe if you think about it a while, you will agree that your family has as great a blessing. * * * Weather caused us more concern during the New Year holiday. We found ourselves cancelling out an activity which has been our custom for 15 years. A favorite uncle in the Mount Forest district celebrates his birthday each New Year's Day. We were unable to be with him — another disappointment chalked up as a reminder of Christmas-New Years '68-'69. We were able to travel to Toronto this past weekend to a wedding. Incidentally, the weather there was sunny and fine with a few snow problems encountered. There may be something to be said for big city living afterall. * * Our thanks go out this week to Miss Susan Heard, home economist for Huron County who has managed to obtain for us a "glossary of terms for orange juice and orange drinks". I have found it highly informative, but also somewhat confusing. The information comes from the Food and Drug Administration and covers a wide range of orange and orange-flavored products. Since one reader has already suggested in a letter that housewives are perhaps being misled by the companies who produce canned juices, you may like to compare MARCHING CHIEF — Mrs, Jean E. Caine, president and general manager of CHWO Radio in Oakville, has been named. Chief Marching Mother for the March of Dimes campaign in Ontario. Mrs. Caine's late husband, Howard C. Caine, was president of the March of Dimes, otherwise known as the Rehabilitation Foundation for the Disabled, before he died a year ago. The announcement concerning the Exeter campaign is expected very soon.

FOR A CHILLED BROOD Whether you are a snowmobile fan, a skiing nut, an ice skater Or just a snow bug, winter is cocoa time. Served with a few cookies, nothing can warm through and through like a steaming hot cup of cocoa, garnished if you wish with a marshmallow as in our photo. This cocoa was made with skim milk powder, the budget-stretching ingredient that has all the food value of whole milk but none of the fat. Besides being easily stored with little worry about spoilage, skim milk powder is so economical it makes hot cocoa for a crowd almost as inexpensive as coffee.
