GET ACQUAINTED WITH OUR NEW COLLECTION OF COLOUR BACKGROUNDS orot y Simpson 's collection. T-A photo D h Si ' Dorothy Simpson's Easter eggs may not be chocolate, but they're certainly a lot prettier. Egg art is just one of Mrs. SimpsOn's many handicrafts, For Easter she decorates eggs in anything, from gingham to pearls. All the eggs she uses are real. She uses chicken eggs, and when she can obtain them she uses goose, duck or bantam eggs. Mrs, Simpson blows the egg, out• of the shell before decorating it, She makes a pin hole in the small end of the egg, and a nail hole in the large end. She sticks a long needle' in the big hole to break the yolk and scram- bles the egg. Then she blows in the small hole and pushes the egg out the big hole. She uses the eggs in baking. Once the egg shell is.' emptied, she rinses it out, in bleach. By cleaning the shell inside and out, she prevents mildew from forming. Thert she sets the egg shell to dry in a carton for several days. She dyes the eggs with concentrated paste colours. This is the same colouring she uses in icing for cake decorating, She puts the colour in a cup and im- merses the egg in it for about five minutes. "It takes a lot of fooling around," she says. Sometimes she decorates the coloured eggs with decoupage. Occasionally she takes a pair of scissors and cuts out part of the shell, so that she can decorate the inside of the egg. For example, one of her tiny eggs has a little bit of moss inside it, with a tiny Easter bunny sitting on it. Another egg has little plastic P.% Mag,, By MRS. RENA CALDWELL Mr. and Mrs. W.J.F.

Mrs. Hugh Scott and family visited recently with Mrs. Percy Wright and Julie. Ham is popular for Easter Easter will soon be here. If you're thinking about serving your family and • guests a delicious Ontario ham for a special dinner, marketing specialists at the Ontario Ministry of Agriculture and Food offer these helpful suggestions. First of all, it is useful to know the true definition of "ham". According' to federal government regulations, ham means the meat from the hind leg of a pig. In the fresh state, the hind leg of the pig is often referred to as a leg of pork. However, in both the live hog and in the carcass or cut form, it is widely known as ham. Sometimes confusion arises when all cured pork products are defined as ham. Even though there are other cuts such as the smoked picnic or cottage roll that taste like cured and smoked ham, they cannot be called ham because they come from the front of the pig. When buying a ham, choose from a wide range of types and sizes. For example, you can choose from a whole, half or quarter portion; one with the bone in, partially boned or boneless; ham with the skin on, partly skinned or skinless. You can also choose the butt portion or shank end; a fully or partially cooked ham; or rolled, shaped, formed and even canned ham. As well as characteristics of type and size, cured hams each have their own par- ticular cured flavor. Each processor has his own curing procedure, so if you find a brand you really like, remember it for another time, Always read the label on a ham product. Most prepackaged hams will have a "best before" date, and! some also provide cooking and heating instructions. Whether you're buying fresh or cured pork, allow approximately 1/4 to 113 pound per serving if it's boneless, and 1/3 to 1/2 pound for a bone-in ham. If hams are on special, you may want to buy a larger one than needed for one meal, and freeze the rest. Remember these helpful tips if you're thinking about Ontario ham for Easter dinner. Correction In last week's account of the 55th wedding an- niversary of Mr. and Mrs. Garfield Latta of London, the name of a daughter Mrs. John (Dorothy) Lauzon, Peterborough was inad- vertently omitted.
