shower. gifts
You've been invited to
a kitchen shower for a
bride-to-be and you don't
know what to bring as a
gift. The bride has been
living in her own apar-
tment and she has a set of
basic cooking utensils,
dishes, pots and pans.
The china pattern she has
selected issimply
beyound your budget and
•eyou still want to get her a
nice gift that she and her
groom will appreciate. I
Why not consider
giving a wok,, a crepe
pan, a slow cooker or a
high -dome clay pot as a
,k4itchen, gift.
A crepe pan is an in-
verted convex frying pan
used for making •deiicate,
thin pancakes that can be
filled with anything from
beef stew to ice cream.
The convex topside of the
pan .is dipped into the
batter until a thin `coat
covers the pan. The
batter cooks quickly over
a gas or ` electric . stove
without being turned. The
.crepe -is th.enturned onto
a plate to be filled with a
delicious concoction.
Several recipe books are
available with • in-
structions on making and
filling the crepes.
' A wok is a' concave
Oriental stir -fry pan used
for cooking fresh
vegetables and meat. The
ingredients are cooked
quickly to retain natural
flavors, moisture and
vitamins. Many woks
come with •a set of
utensils used for stir -fry
cooking and recipe books
are ' available on wok
cooking.
How often have you
roasted a chicken or a
piece of beef only to have
it come out dry and
overcooked?
Using a high -dome clay,
roasting pan will
eliminate that problem.
The dome cover of the
clay pot allows the cook
to cover the chicken or
-re as -t so-t-hat_it-cooks-in-it-s-
own juices and moisture
is retained. Potatoes,
carrots and other
vegetables can be added
to the roast and cooked=
with it.
Slow cookers are alsd.
ceramic pot with a built-
in electric heating
element. Like the clay
roasting pan, they allow
meat and vegetables to
cook slowly in juices or
gravy. Most cooks Out the
ingredients into the slow
cooker early in the -day,
set the desired cooking
temperature and forget
about it until mealtime.
This is a great gift for the
working wife who wants
to 'prepare . wholesome
meals for tier family.
Other popular kitchen
gifts include . waffle
makers, hamburger
makers and egg poaching '
pans. All of these items
along with special cook
books for each. appliance
are available in the
housewares section of
most department stores.

.detaining your maiden name
While many brides still
traditionally take' their
husband's name , when
they marry, a significant
number of young brides
are preserving their
G
identities by retaining
their maiden names.
Many reasons have
been cited for this new
trend, among them being
the , practicality of
keeping an established
name for professional
purposes and the need of
the wife to be her own
person.
