Plan Gay Valentine Meal
For Family; Easy to Do
By ZOLA VINCENT
(Foods Writer)
With week-end entertaining
centering on hearts and flow
ers and red and white col
or schemes, there's no rea-
son why all of us, partying or
ointrwise, shouldn t have more
colorful and interesting food than
usual. The children will love it.
And papa will like a little pam
pering, too.
A cenlcrpiece of "paper dolls"
will make a gay conversation
piece. I'iiper napkins and place
mats or doilies or tablecloth will
gaily dispose of the laundry prob
lem and create atmosphere very
inexpensively. Place cards and
miniature bags of candy tied with
red ribbons can serve as favors
and also as mints for munching
wilh the coffee service.
Or sprinkle bright red hearts,
cupids andor arrows cut from red
paper over a snowy white cloth.
Maybe use large hearts as place
mats and cupids or arrows as place
cards using white ink. Paper lace
doilies make ideal frills for bou
quets of all siz: j.

Are you making the most of
your home freezer? It's wise to
buy foods when you can take
advantage of special prices. To
day with plentiful supplies of
beef coming to market, you'll
wisely add to your freezer a
quantity of beef cuts,
When packaging meat for
freezing, have it cut the right
size for your family meals or
for guest meals. Clearly mark
each package accordingly so
you quickly choose it from the
freezer.
It's highly important that
you wrap meat so that air can
not reach the meat surface. A
number of wrappings on the
market may be used. If you
purchase meat from self-service
market unwrap it. then
place in regular freezing wrap
pings before freezing.
Frozen meat may be defrost
ed before- or during cooking. If
before cooking, defrost either
in the refrigerator or at room
temperature. Of course defrost
ing time depends upon the tem
perature and the size. Chunky
pieces take a longer period
than thin cuts. Wrapped frozen
meat, likewise, takes longer
man unwrapped meat.
When preparing a frozen
roast you can estimate cooking
time by allowing approximate-1
ly Vt to again as long as
those which have been defrost
ed. Steaks or chops to be coat
ed with batter or with crumbs
should be defrosted before
cooking. Thick frozen Steaks
and chops must be broiled
more slowly than defrosted
steaks or ohops in order that
the meat will be cooked to the
donencss desired without be
coming too brown on the out
side, i
