When Mother's special day comes around next week,
a thoughtful way for the family to observe it is
to take over all or part of the food preparation
that Mother does so uncomplainingly all the other
364 days of the year. Here are a few recipes for
truly festive foods that are not too difficult for
daughters and sons, with an assist from Dad.

Plehled-PeacH Salad
The main course at dinner will probably
remain Mother's province, but anyone in
the family can make this pretty, flavorful,
and easy-to-prepare salad to accompany
and flatter it
Lightly oil 6 individual molds with salad
or cooking oil (not olive oil) ; drain.
Drain, reserving sirup in a 1-cup meas
uring cup for liquids, the contents of
1 con or or of spiced pooches
If necessary, add to reserved sirup
Water (enough to make 1 cup
liquid)
Empty into a bowl
1 pkg. orange-flavored gelatin
Add, stirring until gelatin is completely
dissolved
1 cup very hot water
Stir in the peach liquid. Chill in refrig
erator or in pan of ice and water until
slightly thicker than consistency of thick
unbeaten egg white. If chilled in refrig
erator, stir occasionally; if chilled over ice
and water, stir frequently.
Meanwhile, set out
Cream cheese
Toasted pecan halves
Cut peaches into halves; remove pits. Fill
each cavity with about 1 teaspoon cream
cheese; top with pecans. Set aside.
When gelatin mixture is of the desired
consistency, spoon about 2 tablespoons of
the mixture into each mold. Place peach
halves, filled side down, in the molds. .
Spoon remaining gelatin mixture into the
molds, covering the peach halves. Chill
until firm. Unmold (see Two-Layer
Chicken-Cranberry Salad) onto crisp
salad greens. 6 servings
