Home My WebLink AboutTimes-Advocate, 1981-07-22, Page 6Times -Advocate, July 22, 19$1 By ELAINE TOWNSHEND With my theme song blar- ing in the background, I'm typing this ditty to you. What is my theme song? It's a tune sung by Billy Joel and called You May Be Right. The part I've adopted as my motto goes like this: "You may be right; I may be crazy. But it just may be a lunatic you're looking for." Surely by now, dear readers: you know when to Make :sure It's cool Summer heat calls for cold foods. For food safety, keep all perishables cold (4 degrees C or 40 degrees F), say food nutrition specialists with the Ontario Ministry of Agriculture and Food. Keeping foods "cool" is not enough. Milk, eggs, ground and processed meats, fish and poultry are the most perishable foods. Dishes containing them, such as custard pies and sauces, creamy casseroles, salads mixed with mayonnaise -- particularly potato-, meat sauces, stews and broths, must be treated with care. Remember that the cooking process won't necessarily keep them safe. Similar to starchy foods, proteins are more susceptible to bacteria after they are cooked. If ° these.fbods are left at room temperature for more than two hours, throw them out. Even with present food prices, it's not worth taking a chance. Chill foods safety practices when grocery shopping. If it's a long trip from the store to your refrigerator, protect the perishable items in a pre - chilled cooler in the back seat of your car. Avoid putting the cooler in the hot trunk. Odds'n ends Seriously take me seriously and when not to. Sometimes we all take ourselves too seriously, and laughter is needed to relieve the tension. For example, this morning I walked into the office and turned on the fan to move the heavy hot air. Instead I sent sheets of typewriter paper, carbon paper, notes, letters and envelopes flying around the room. My first impulse was to kick something, which could have resulted in a broken toe. Laughter, although forc- ed, seemed like a safer choice. There is one misconcep- tion I must clear up with you. Those of you, who read this column regularly, have probably noticed I oc- casionally take pot shots at my brother-in-law - safe in the knowledge I can keep the paper out of his sight. A few weeks ago someone asked me if he was as bad as I made out to be. Of course, he's not that bad. He's worse' (Just kidding, folks!) To fill space every week, columnists need someone to poke fun at. the most ob- vious victims, of course, are the writers. But we need variety. Some writers use their spouse, their kids or even their grandchildren. What better person for me to choose than someone I've traded quips with for twenty years! We don't take exception to each other's remarks. We just consider where they came from. We understand each other, sort of, and we've had some good laughs. Once in a while we agree or' at least reach a com- promise. About three years ago, for instance, he asked me one day to move the pile of junk from his driveway. I said I couldn't drive his car. He said that wasn'tthe pile of junk he meant. In the end, we decided we were both driving piles of junk but his was more ex- pensive. If the truth were known, I've come to think of him as a brother and to depend on him as many sisters depend on big brothers for support and advice. But, if you think I'd admit that to him, guess again. I'm more likely to tell him I don't listen to him half the time and ignore him the rest. Museum to host craft sale Sunday r The Lambton Heritage Museum is hosting a Heritage Craft Sale on Sun- day. July 26, from noon to five. Craftsmen from throughout Southwestern Ontario will participate, offering quality crafts such as weaving. pottery, and woodworking. Many artisans will demonstrate their craft to give visitors an idea of the Light meal for hot day Ontario salads offer variation to summer meals.

Marketing specialists at the Ontario Ministry of Agriculture and Food suggest you'll have a great selection when you shop for fresh salad ingredients throughout July and Augusta The best salads begin with' a good base of Ontario let- tuce. Ontario iceberg lettuce is the most popular and: plentiful. Last year, more than 24 million heads of iceberg lettuce were produced and marketed in' the province.

When the greens are wet, the dressing tends to drain to the bottom of the salad bowl where it soon becomes diluted with excess moisture.
