FORGOTTEN PAIR
Carmel, Calif .UPI) The
wedding of socialite Armour
Smith and Miss Bonnie Dicka
son went off, like a charm,
with one slight exception.
After the ceremony, the hun
dreds of guests drove off to
a reception on the other side
of town leaving the bride
and groom stranded. So they
hitch-hiked!
Thorough cooking is a must
for fresh pork. A meat ther
mometer is most reliable,
but this method also works:
make small incisions next to
the bone. If the meat has
changed from pink to grayish
white, the pork is done.
