McCabe home near lone
bedrooms upstairs and a bed
room and a parlor downstairs.
The house was heated by
wood burning stoves, and
kerosene lights were the,
source of light for evening
reading and visiting.
In 1933 the lower floor of the
house was divided to make
separate living quarters for
two families. Carbide gas
lights had been Installed in
1928 and were used until elec
tricity came to the area in
19r0.
In 1945 the long narrow
kitchen was removed and
some interior remodeling was
done. The original porch on
the taller part of the house had
deteriorated and had been
removed by 1930.
The 1945 remodeling inclu-d-d
a new porch on two sides
of the parlor room, now a
kitchen and family room. A
bathroom was added at this
time. The family living in the
house from 1932 - 1974 was the
Lonnie McCabe family. He
was the grandkon of . Mtmo
Olden.
The death of Lonnie in 1974
brought a change of people to
the house, when Alvin. son of

"Leisure-Summer Meals"
the glossy magazine photo
pictures the barbecued chic
ken and the tall glasses of
lemonade with the lovely
country scene behind. Sum
mer has never seemed like a
leisure time to me. In fact,
when you have kids home
from school, summer Is any
thing but leisure, and meals
are a real challenge. The
house that used to be so quiet
is now bustling with activity.
The phone that used to ring a
few times rings off the hook
and Is only for me when I
refuse to answer it because
it's always for the kids.
The little dabs of leftovers
that made easy little lunches
no longer suffice for the people
that are around for lunch. You
no longer know what's In the
kitchen. The gallon of milk ;
you brought home last night is
gone in a day. The kids are
either super busy or super
bored there seems to be no
in-between stage. Appetites
are either nonexistent or ra
venous. All in all it seems as
though my summers have
always been a little out of
control, especially when we
first make the change from a
school schedule to a summer
schedule.
How can you save money in
the summer when it seems
like the food just evaporates?
How can you make sure
everyone that's going which
wav has the food they need to .
be healthy? How can you use
up little dabs of leftovers that
aren't really enough for the
whole gang? How can you
keep things to drink in the '
house without spending a for
tune? It certainly is a chal
lenge. One of the things I dis
covered was "sun tea" which I
mfike by the gallon. Just a
glass jar. a sunny place, and
three or four tea bags per
gallon is all that's needed. If
vou don't like the kids to have
caffeine, there are a number
of herb teas that are delight
ful. Just fill the jar with cold
water, hang the tea bags so
the strings can be pulled out
and let it sit in the sun until it's
as dark as you like it. This
usually takes about six or
eight hours for my taste. Then
you can take out the tea bags
(if you lose the strings inside,
or use generic tea bags that
don't have strings, it really
isn't too crucial to remove the
bags ). sweeten if you wish and
refrigerate. This gallon of
beverage which is refreshing
and low calorie then costs
from four cents to about nine
cents a lot less than pop or
any beverage other than
water.

Eating
mertime"? According to a
survey done recently, the
most favorite activity is pic
V nicking. Whether it's off to the
city park or a long drive into
"the country, it' fun to take
'your food to the great out
doors. Picnicking can be as com
plicated or as simple as you
want to make it. It can be a
sandwich, cookie and fruit like
you would take in a lunch to
.school or work, or it can be a
gourmet treat that takes spe
cial care. The family Joves it
either way to add a little spice
to your life take your family
outdoors for a meal.
If you want to travel light
but have something gourmet,
try choosing special breads to
make your sandwich. Pocket
bread is easy to make and is a
real treat.
French bread, hamburger
buns and other special breads
can add variety, too.
One of our favorites is a loaf
of French bread made into one
big sandwich. Then take along
a knife and cutting board. Deli
meats and cheese are the
preferred filling and can
sometimes be bought on sale.
If they're too expensive, try
some other fillings, like egg
salad or chicken salad. Tur
key drumsticks are often on
sale and can be boiled and the
meat taken off the bones for a
good sandwich filling.
Be sure the foods you take
are kept safe. Meat, or com
bination foods, like egg salad
need to be kept at refrigerator
temperatures or used within
two hours. Pack them into an
Ice chest with plenty of ice. I
like to save money and the
mess of melting ice by freez
ing water in a large plastic
container or a Mi-gallon milk
carton. Also, it gets expensive
to buy ice in the store.
t' If an ice chest isn't avail
fable, stick to cheese, peanut
butter or hard cooked eggs in
.'their shell. Another choice
would be to take commercial
ly canned meat or fish along

and open it when you're about
to eat.
Kase of preparation and
easy cleanup make a picnic
more fun for the cook in the
family. Plan for cleanup when
you pack the lunch. For In
stance, put in a plastic sack if
you take along a melon. Then
you have something to put the
rinds and seeds in.
Camping is a real family
favorite, too. The same prin
ciples apply here. Choose
things that are easy to prepare
and take a short cooking time
and plan what you take accor
ding to what refrigeration you
have available.
In camping, though, the
planning is much more criti
cal. When our family was dong
a lot of camping, I always kept
a checklist so I wouldn't forget
anvthing that was really
necessary. The basic items
were kept in a special "camp
ing box." Then I just added
the special things needed for
the menus I had planned.
Barbecue and patio meals
are great in the summer. You
don't always have to have
steak or expensive cuts of
meat. If you marinate meats,
or use commercial tenderi
ze you can use the less
expensive cuts. Don't forget
the lower cost meats like
turkey anbd chicken that can
be cut up to make delightful
barbecue meals. You don't
have to purchase marinades,
thev are just a combinatirj of
some kind of acid lemon
iuice. orange juice, vinegar or
wine, sometimes a little oil
and some flavoring. You can
even use Italian type salad
dressing for marinades.
You can also make your own
barbecue sauces from com
mon things you have at home
for considerably less than a
iar of ready-made sauce. You
can speed up the barbecue
time by cooking the less ten
der meats for awhile in the
oven or microwave. I especial
ly like to pre-eook chicken and
then finish it with barbecue

sauce on the grill. If your
' barbecue sauce has sugar, in
it .'you need to use it only in the
very last few minutes of cook
ing or ft may look burned
before1 the meat is cooked
through.
You can serve smaller por
tions of meat and concentrate
on the plentiful fruits and
vegetables that are low in cost
and high in nutritional value.
Kabobs or skewers are very
festive and easy to prepare. It
makes a little bit of meat look
a lot bigiger. If you are using a
variety of meats, fruits and
vegetables on a kabob, they
need to have the same cooking
time or each item should be
put on a separate kabob.
. Here's a simple barbecue
sauce that's great on chicken
but also good on other low-cost
meats. Use it in the last 10
minutes of barbecuing on the
outdoor grill. It can also be
used in the oven as a sauce for
less tender meat.
