Men,

in-

Not only are these women
reading over your shoulder,
they've got to the point
where they're making
requests. I mean, really.

Oh, sure, they’ve been
threatened, with everything
from baldness to bunions,

but they still think your‘

recipes are easier than their
recipes. The other day in the
whiskey store the check-out
woman: wanted a good
recipe’ for carrot
Because it’s one of your
favorites it seemed

reasonable to give it to her, |

eh? . .
~The best thing about
carrot cake is that it’s not too
sweet, besides having all that
Vitamin “A” to spare. Some
people will load in piheapple
- and coconut, but in my view
they're getting something
else. This one is made in a
rather large cake-pan (it
keeps well) 9" by. 13” (22.5
cm by 32.5 cm). You may
have to buy a foil pan.
Grease your choice well with

lard or shortening (get into
the corners!) and then shake
-a bit of flour around in it and
bang out the excess. You
now have a non-stick pan.
Set the oven at 350F (180C)

and put two squares of
margarine in a pot in there to
melt while the heat comes

up.
You'll need two fairly
large mixing-bowls. In the
one, mix with a fork 2%
cups (62mL) of whole wheat
flour with 1 tspn. (SmL) of
cinnamon, half as much
nutmeg, % tspn. (1.5mL) of
cloves, 2 tspns. (10mL)
baking soda and 4 tspns.
(20mL) of baking powder.
(Watch those last two
carefully. Baking soda has a

picture of a cow on the box; .

baking powder does not.
They are both leaveners, and
these amounts are unusually
large but the moist carrot
needs the extra leverage.
Are you with me?)

Into the other bowl, break
2 eggs and beat them with
your trusty fork. Grate
enough carrot to make 2
cups (SOOmL) and add to the
egg. Add 1 cup (250mL) of
honey and the same of salad
oil (anything but olive), and
the melted margarine. Now
‘a cup (125mL) of lemon
juice and with the fork blend

Mealtime storm signa

By JOAN FIELDEN

Every time of the year is
the time to look for storm
signals on the health front.
Lagging appetites and table-
time tantrums are storm
warnings.

When mealtime music
becomes a chorus of “NO!”
from members of the family,
young and old, read between
the lines. When people begin
to tum down attractive
wholesome food, their food
habits and their health are at
stake.

Particularly youngsters
and appetites are easily
parted — a fact to remember
when emotional problems
are allowed to invade the

mealtime atmosphere.

The kitchen or dining
room should never be tumed
into a family court. Any
emotional upset, ex-
citement, disappointment,
anger or fear, plays havoc
with digestion. When meals
are peaceful and happy,
stubborn feeding probelms
are not So apt to occur.

The person who comes to
the table excessively hungry
and tired, often becomes
discouraged and does not
enjoy food.

The all too familiar “won't
eat it!” tempest can be
lessened or avoided by
offering new foods one at a
time. A small token serving
of the new, with a well-liked
familiar food, will often be

Finding local fruit and

A HANDY little West
Vancouver publication is a
new pamphlet entitled 1982
Roadside Guide.

For $2 the guide lists all
the local] fruit and vegetable
stands, their locations, hours
of business, and produce for

There is also a chart giving
the approximate seasons for
local produce.

If you want to pick your
own fruit and vegetables this
summer, it might be worth
looking into.

New foods or new ways of
serving old favourites, help
to keep mealtime interesting
and pleasant. Food mix-
tures, in which the
ingredients are not easjly
recognized,or highly spiced
foods, may discourage
rather than encourge healthy
appetites.

Thoughtful homemakers
make family meaals a
pleasant adventure. They
ensure that there is an array
of good Canadian foods.

all this stuff together and
dump it into the dry mixture,
using a spoon or spatula to
get the two well combined.

Scrape it all into your
nicely-prepared cake-pan
and slide it into the middle of
the ready oven for an hour.
Test with a tooth-pick in the
centre of the cake at the end
of that time. The tooth-pick
should be clean — if there is
any stickiness, push it back
in for ten minutes.

Lift the. pan out on to the
counter to cool for five
minutes, then turn the pan
upside down on a rack to dry
top and bottom.

_you’ll have to run a knife

around the edge and try
again. Give it a couple of
knotks on the bottom, and
do it right next time.

When it is quite cold,

soften some cream cheese

(or use the soft kind in a tub)
and add honey by the
spoonful until you like the
taste. Spread this all over the
cake and sprinkle it with
crushed nuts for a final fillip.
