Winter time is hearty break fast time . . . and with good rea son. For certainly "a good break fast means a good or, at the very least, a better morning. Here are some suggestions for good breakfasts, the kind that give you plenty of "get up and go. Honey-Orange Baked Pears will start any day off just right. Wash, halve and core ripe Bosc or Anjou pears then sprinkle with lemon juice and place cut side down in baking dish. Add just enough water to cover bot tom of pan. Place in 375 degree oven for 20 to 25 minutes or until tender. Remove from pan turning pears cut side up. Fill cavities with a teaspoon of mar malade and pour honey over all. Broil five to eight minutes, bast ing occasionally. Serve warm. The extra syrup is wonderful on pancakes. Oxher good breakfast sugges tions are: Apple sauce' with dates or figs (or both) cut up and served with cream. Then soft-cooked eggs, plenty of toast, marmalade and coffee . . . with milk or cocoa for the youngsters. A big glassful ' of hot apple juice is wonderfully bracing on a cold morning along with scrambled eggs and bacon, muf fins or rolls and beverage. , Sliced bananas with orange juice over them is a long time favorite breakfast starter. Then how about pancakes or waffles crowned with a mixture of but ter and apple sauce that have been heated together, some saus ages and coffee. Grapefruit broiled with a bit of brown sugar and butter, fol lowed by a ham or cheese ome let, toasted raisin or other va riety bread and hot chocolate makes a breakfast to remember. Apples, sliced in wedges and sprinkled with a cinnamon and sugar mixture is a favorite fin ger food for the small fry. Or saute the apple slices in butter until tender and serve hot with cream. French toast and crispy bacon slices go-well with this. Orange Spread Here is something a little dif ferent to serve on pancakes, waf fles or French toast. The family will undoubtedly ask jEor repees. Blend together one-fourth cup butter, ' one-half cup sugar and the juice and grated rind of one orange. Use as a spread. That's all there is to' it. Salmon Bake With Onion Biscuits Such a dish! You simply cap onion biscuits with flaky sal mon and brighten the flavor with a touch of lemon juice, chili sauce and green pepper. Then pour cheese sauce over it! Better make two batches if you're serv ing more than three persons. Salmon Bake Combine one cup flaked sal mon (seven-ounce can or one cup leftover fresh, cooked salmon) and one-third cup chopped green pepper in bottom of a one-quart casserole. Add one-fourth cup milk, one tablespoon lemon juice, one tablespoon chili sauce, one-fourth teaspoon salt and mix well. Top with: Onion Biscuits Sift together 1V4 cups sifted enriched flour, two teaspoons baking powder and one-half tea spoon salt. Cut or rub in one fourth cup shortening until mix ture is crumbly. Add one-fourth cup chopped onion and mix lightly. Add three-fourths cup milk to make a drop batter, stirring until well blended. Drop by spoonfuls on salmon mixture, spreading evenly. Bake in hot over (450 degrees) about 15 min utes. Turn out upside down on serving plate and pour your fa vorite cheese sauce over all. Should Frozen Meat Be . Thawed Before Cooking? Many homemakers ask the question, "Should frozen meat be thawed before cooking or will it cook as successfully if started hard-frozen?" The experts say that conven ience may decide whether to thaw before cooking. If the meat is in a locker, it may be most convenient to take out a roast for Sunday when you are shop-! ping on Friday or Saturday. If kept in the refrigerator, it will thaw out gradually and be ready fox cooking on Sunday." In con trast, if the meat is in a home freezer and you have unexpected guests or a hurry-up meal, you may want to put the frozen meat on to cook. Frozen meat takes longer to cook than thaw ed meat; roasts take twice as long to cook rare, three times as long to cook well-done as fresh or thawed roasts. Meat should be used soon after thawing to avoid excessive juice loss. Meats, especially large pieces, cook more evenly if thawed in advance. No taste difference, no dif ference in palatability, nutritive value, evaporation or "total drip" has been found, whether meat is thawed during cooking, at room temperature or in the refrigerator. It's a Wise Homemaker Who Watches Grocery Ads ' Now is a good time to watch the grocery advertisements and start replenishing holiday-depleted pantry shelves. By check ing all your stocks and deciding just what staple and emergency supplies you want to have on hand you can slowly build up your reserves at the very lowest prices. - Meal versatility and economy are available to the budget-watcher who plans ahead. For instance keep such inexpen sive nutritional products as dried beans and peas, lentils and bar ley on the shelf and you are much more likely to use up that left over meat or poultry soup stock. A variety of macaroni products makes for inexpensive meal planning. There is a wide selection of handy, easy to use canned meats for every day and emergency use. Canned tuna and salmon for sandwiches, salads, soups and main dishes are practically; a must. Canned tomato products, fruits and vege tables as well as juices are fre quently specialed so buy. when the price is right. At the same time be sure to check your con diments and seasonings, because nothing is more annoying than to reach, for ketchup, pickles or soy sauce and find the bottle empty. Best Vegetable Buys The "C's" have it, with car rots, celery, cauliflower and cab bage on the best buy list. Onions, lettuce and artichokes are in good supply. Potatoes are a bit higher. - Broccoli, winter squash and tomatoes are available at reasonable prices. Best Fruit Buys Apples, including red and golden Delicious, Winesaps and Newtowns, are in abundance with correspondingly good prices. Winter pears are at their peak and should be enjoyed now. Grapefruit and navel oranges are increasingly available. Grapes are getting scarcer. Meat Department Beef continues to be the fea tured meat. Supplies of lamb are ample at fair prices. The family might well welcome lamb as a pleasant change in case you have forgotten it lately. Pork continues plentiful, check ex- pecially for good buys in shoul der cuts, spareribs, hams and bacon. Packaged sausages and frankfurters are frequently ad vertised at remarkably low prices. Also keep an eye out for good buys in the specialty meats such as kidneys, sweet breads, tongue, brains and liver Extension Unit Holds Meeting At Vaughn Home Eagle Point Twenty-seven members and one guest attended ina nf Facie Point Home Extension unit, held at the home of Mrs. Vinson Vaughn.
