Late Christmas Season Preparation
By Maxlne Buren
Statesman Woman's Editor
There are a few things we have left out, in our wild frenzy
to include about all the recipes anyone wants to have around holi
day time.
Here is a divinity recipe requested. It's an especially good
one using two syrups, which produces a creamy candy.
TWO-SYKUP DIVINITY
Boil together 1 cup sugar and V cup water until syrup spins
a thread (240 degrees). Pour it over stiffly beaten whites of S
eggs. Boil together 3 cups sugar, 1 cup corn syrup and Vi cup wa
ter until It spins a thread 7 Inches long (258 degrees). Pour this
into the first mixture, beating until cold. Add 1 cup walnuts and
1 teaspoon vanilla Just before it begins to stiffen. Drop from the
tip of a spoon on an oiled sheet.
Then another candy which is popular at this season:

hard crack when dropped Into cold water (280 degrees) and re
move from fire. Add butter and when melted, pour over corn.
Form as quickly as possible into balls, buttering hands well.
Then there Is a recipe for steamed pudding. Ours is less rich
than some but the flavor is good and the general effect one of
richness.

1 cup brown sugar meg, salt and soda
2 cups raisins H cup melted butter or mar-
arine

hours or less for small molds. Serve with hard or soft sauce.
There are many sauces, but here's a basic hard sauce:
Y cup butter or margarine 1 teaspoon lemon Juice
1 cup confectioner's sugar Or vanilla to flavor
Cream butter and sugar, add flavor' or lemon.
Then here's another steamed pudding:

Q. When you are a member of
a little group of friends, and
someone begins a story you have
already heard, is it proper to in
terject, "I've heard that one before"?
A. This is exceedingly rude, as
you are not only throwing the
story-teller off-balance, but you
are also spoiling the story for the
other listeners. It is much better
to appear interested and act as
though you had not already heard
tne story.
Q. To whom should a bride
show preference, if any, in choos
ing her maid-of -honor?
A. The bride's sister usually has
preference. If there is no sister,
then the bride chooses her most
intimate friend.
Q. What would be an appropri
ate toast for a guest to offer to
his host?
" A. To a real friend, a royal
entertainer, a sterling companion.
and a regular fellow our host.
