For at no other time in ine year is u possible to enjoy such wholesome (anas accompanies this feast in cele bration of golden harvests safely garnered.

Really, it is only by means of her menu that the ambitious hostess can make her Halloween party mr.em bered. The food, of course, should be simple. Also, nuts and apples, fall fruits and spices should pre dominate. But there are many op portunities to form these common place viands into unusual and inter esting combinations.
