and then make a camp fire and
cooking spot. Set up your tent.
Get out your fishing gear and
find a good spot to fish. Bait
your hook, set your reel and
have a great time! Now that
you have caught your limit,
clean and gut your trout; leave
the fish whole with head and
tail still attached.
“Heat up the iron skillet on
the camp fire and put in the
butter to melt. Put the flour, salt
and garlic powder in the plastic
zip bag and put in your trout,
one at a time to dredge each
one with the coating mixture.
Cook about two trout at a time
until each one is just done, not
overcooked. When serving the
trout, each one should be slit
with a knife from chin to tail so
you can filet the fish; then
squeeze some lemon juice on
the trout.”
Merilee shared that her dad
took her and her brother out
fishing for trout on camping
trips when they were children.
They prepared the fish in this
manner and it was the most
delicious meal a child could

FERDINAND – Classic novel brought to life
as “sage” advice about
Colonial use of herbs, the book
is also entertaining. Proceeds
from sales go back into the
community, as the nine-year-
old chapter continues to sup-
port local nonprofit endeavors.
Recipes date from the 15th
to the 20th centuries and
include Mary Gill’s prize-win-
ning recipe for “Braised Short
Ribs” that was published in
“Taste of Home” magazine
October/November 2004.
Until ketchup making was
standardized by Fannie Farmer,
head of Boston Cooking
School in the late 19th century,
this popular condiment was
made from many kinds of fruits
and vegetables. The recipe for
“Cucumber Ketchup” is cer-
tainly worth a try, along with
“Maxine’s Bean Salad,” as
served at Newton’s Ice Cream
Parlor in Lake Oswego, Ore.,
in the 1960s and 1970s.
Many of the recipes are
accompanied by stories, such
as this one for trout, by Merilee
