Hot, hearty soups, the Itind that used to simmer all day on the back of grandmother's stove, but now simply take minutes to make, are great appeasers of brisk weather appetites. For flavor they are unbeatable; for cooking ease unexcelled. Tan- talize your family with their savory aroma, then serve piping hot with fresh-from-the-oven biscuits, A brimming bowl of hearty soup is a meal in itself, the most it needs along with the biscuits is a salad ac- companiment, One cold winter evening, serve a hot soup that nobody can resist, Kettle of Fish Chowder. This hearty rib-stickin' soup is one of the best, quick to cook and easy to serve. The recipe from the Dairy Foods Service Bureau brings together some of the more popular flavors of seacoast cookery. There's no need however, to live right next to the ocean to achieve its fresh-from- the-sea flavor. Here is a one-dish supper soup based on pantry shelf ingredients, potatoes, bacon, onions, celery, frozen cod or halibut fillets and a small can of shrimp, all very delicately seasoned. Fresh milk and cream give the soup its biggest flavor lift and provide the family with extra nourishment too. instills near paranoia. It usually starts right after Christmas. Inevitably some well-meaning friend comes up and says, "Hey Sue, have you made your New year's resolutions yet?" Then, without any prompting, he begins to rhyme off a list of his own resolutions as long as your arm. Now for any normal human being, this would present no problem, But for an inveterate and incurable procrastinator like Myself, it results in a certain amount of anxiety. The idea behind the making of resolutions is a good one. At the end of the year, you have a golden opportunity to make a new start, to make a special effort in your job, to slough off old and bad habits. The problem for people like me, is that you have let things go for so long, when New Years rolls around you have accumulated quite a formidable list of decisions and resolutions to make. First of all, think of that long list of people you promised to write to last year, people you would really like to keep in touch with, but whom you just couldn't find the time to write. And how many times did you say you would quit smoking right after this pack was finished? Or when are you going to get rid of that pile of odds and ends downstairs that you have been A REGULAR DONOR — One of the regular attenders at the Red Cross blood clinic held at the Exeter Legion hall each Christmas holidays is Ken Johns of town. Johns shown with Legion Auxiliary helper Barb Hearn was giving for the 23rd time. P-A photo. Whether you Iike it or not, the last breath in 1972 has been drawn. The first baby has been born and old man Time has settled back in his rocking chair to grow his beard for another 365 days. The advent of the New Year is probably one of the main times of the year which elicits such a great variety of responses from people. For starters, of course, there is a rash of traditional New Year's Eve parties; Guy Lom- bardo and the sweetest music this side of heaven; and "Auld Lang Syne". Spirits (both kinds) are running fast and free and there seems to be a general air of carefree abandon affecting almost everybody. But then, any excuse for a party is an excuse to have a good time. But there is much more to it than simply that. At this sym- bolic closing of one door and opening of another, many people stand back to take stock of the past year. Accomplishments and failures, sadness and joy, all are remembered, assessed and then filed away for future reference and recollection. As far the country is con- cerned, there didn't seem to be a great change in too much, Prices went up, wages went down (at least it may have seemed that way); unemployment went up, (if you're on one side of the fence) and unemployment went down, (if you're on the other); new bright political figures rose up, older familiar ones went down to defeat; and some couldn't make 'gyp their mind. All in all, it has been an active year in sports too, with Mark Spitz becoming the golden boy of the American olympic team; Team Canada restoring Canadian faith in the invincibility of the national sport; and a $1 million cheque which blew Bobby Hull from one windy city to another. As for myself, 1972 shaped up quite well. It had its down moments, but fortunately, we are all blessed with the ability to forget those. On the plus side, I finally finished university, got my first job, and my first car (at least I think that should be on the "plus" side); my brother turned 16; my "little" sister got engaged' my parents celebrated 25years of marriage together ;four of my best friends got married; and two others departed for and returned from tours of the romantic European continent. The coming year looks in- teresting as well. For Exeter, it will mean a series of celebrations marking Centennial an exciting prospect for any community. For me, well, you can never tell. My last fortune cookie said I am going to do some travelling. My horoscope says, "The search for a more workable way of life and personal reward fills this busy year of many changes. Relationships must find new levels". Sounds interesting, but rather vague. These then, are the things which occupy most people at this time of year, retrospection and prediction. There is one tradition of New Years, however, which definitely doesn't agree with me. In fact, it Greenway residents mark holiday season with visits meaning to throw out for ages, but sort of hated to, because you never know when something might come in handy? And that's hardly even the beginning of the list. But these are things which, although I know I should do, I can always find some "plausible" reason for putting off the actual act. But now it is that time of year again when people expect you to make decisions, The editor ex- pects you to have your column written first thing Monday morning. Your mother expects that you will keep your promise to try to write once a week, In effect, the pressure is really on for you to quit procrastinating, and put some concrete action where your mouth is. Until this year, 1 have usually managed even to avoid making resolutions, but for some reason, the pressure is even stronger now. Maybe it's because I am no longer a mere student, but rather a responsible and independent member of the community at large. At any rate, I think I'll finally make the plunge and commit myself to a few resolutions. (With my luck, probably end up all wet) But before anyone gets too excited about it I must announce that I am not going to tell any one what my resolutions are, just in case. Then when I do break them, no one but me will know that I failed again. But believe me, I did make them. And if you did too, I wish you the best of luck.
