FOOD SECTION canoe trip, a bicycle trip or a hike builds plenty of appetite and thirst; but the problem is, food and drink must be carried — usually on each canoeist’s or cyclist’s or hiker’s back. So those big iugs, bottles and hampers are out of the question. The trick is to pack as much as possible into as little space and with as little weight as possible. Experienced campers rely on such things as cheese, dried meats, hard-cooked or deviled eggs. And a good chunk of buttered French bread with some boiled ham, salami or luncheon meat is a pretty good meal for anyone. Chunks oi fresh pineapple, raw carrots or apples supply needed moisture and for out and out summer pleasure there’s nothing like a coo, drink with a lemony taste. Bever ages can be made before takeoff time and poured into a small thermos or canteen for easy transport. Country Time lemonade flavor drink mix provides the basis for each of these five refreshing drinks and is available in convenient forms — 10-quart canis ters complete with measuring scoop, 2-auart envelopes and ready-to-drink 12 fl. oz. cans. Sugar has been added to this convenient beverage product, which is made with 100 percent natural lemon flavor. Refreshing, thirst-quenching and oh, so convenient. Three Fruit Beverage calls for one 12 fl. oz. can which, in combination with cranberry juice cocktail and orange juice, makes a sunny, flavorful drink. Pink Grapefruit Refresher uses 2 scoops from the canister dissolved in water, unsweetened grapefruit juice and gren adine for color. A garnish of fresh strawberries adds a festive note if the day’s activity should be backyard loaf ing. Lemony Punch, Tart Lemon-Lime Cooler and Spicy Bouillon are equally at home on the road, on the water or at home. Whether your summer pleasure lies in boating, cycling, hiking or in a back yard hammock, the activity is more pleasurable with one of these refreshing drinks.

The re a lity , o f course, is often something quite different. The two some may be roomates sharing quarters fo r economy reasons, a hard-w orking couple, or any other sm all-fam ily com bination, w ith lit tle tim e or in clin a tio n to fuss over meal preparation. Either way, you’ ll want to put excitement on the table and we have tw o delectable dinner ideas, both p ractical and budget- minded—tailored for two. The secret? Grapefruit juice mari nades to tenderize inexpensive cuts o f meat to get the most taste and convenience out o f them. Since the m a rin a tin g process breaks down much o f the tough fiber in the meat (and grapefruit juice is a natural), cooking time is reduced significant ly. The Spicy Skewered Beef recipe uses cubes o f beef round, steeped o vernight in the m arinade, then threaded on skewers with vegetables and broiled for just 10 to 15 minutes fo r the perfect double-serving d in ner that can be cooked indoors or out. The recipe fo r Dixie Beef Stew serves fo u r, but not to w o rry. The stew freezes beautifully, so the extra portions can be defrosted whenever time lim itations demand an instant dinner.
