A Sweet "Recipe"

I apologize that there are no recipes again today. Rhonda had her Science Fair/STEM competition today and it took way longer than I had hoped/thought. So, here's a cute little "recipe" for Christmas Cheer from my copy of Gifts From Your Kitchen (1955). It's attributed to Clementine Paddleford, a Food Editor of the New York Herald Tribune and This Week magazine.

Christmas Cheer Recipe

Take a bushel of tinsel, sprinkle well throughout the house. Add two dozen stars and one christmas tree Take a generous spray of mistletoe, an armload of holly and a full measure of snow laid in curved hills along the window sills. Toss in a Christmas carol, and season well with good will and friendly laughter. Light the candles, "one for adoration, two fro celebration." Let the first burn brightly, and may those you love be near. The yield: One Happy Christmas.
