GS travel [ex] I C17 - Sunday, May 1, 1983 - North Shore News WHEN MOM GOES TRAVELLING Family favorites fill the fridge y Barbara McCreadie LET’S SAY you (Mom) are breaking away from home and family for two weeks. You are leaving, no doubt with great regret, your husband, kids, cat, dog and other household pests to fend for them- selves. It’s a worry, isn't it. How do you stock up the house so that the whole works won't be suffering from malnutntion when you return? Your first worry had better be the cat and dog - how often does any member of the family besides YOU dish up the chow-chow- chow? One approach is to pay one kid to do it and pay another kid to spy! I'm not kidding! If your animals are as smart as mine, theyll snitch to the spy every day Most famihes, abandoned by a heartless Mother, rely heavily on the fast food junk outlets It doesn’t seem to matter that) youve — left fourteen casseroles nicely packaged for dinner Some wretch will emher forget to defrost or be too hungry to meal to watt for the heat WAIKIKI $379 Ai (rity WAIKIKI *479 8 Days, / Nights At & Hotel LAS VEGAS $295 5 Days 4 Nights At & Hotel RENO 5 Days 4 Nights TORONTO Alt Only MAPLE LEAF TRAVEL 736-3555 Rep.

Also, even the most dedicated McDonald's supporter gets a bit tired after the eighth big Mac. There’s a lot of things that families run out of, even when you're at home. Your first essential is to check your cupboards and replace anything tht is running low. HEADED for the tropics is Eric Czembor who won a tip to Hawail and $300 spending money in a Crash Pad Collision contest. Len Macht (right) congratulates him. Pay special attention to soap, toilet tissue, tooth- paste and the like. Buy a good supply. Next, make sure that there's extra margarine, jam, peanut butter and tea- coffee. Buy a jar of coffee creamer and stow a couple of cartons of milk in your freezer. Yes, mulk (homo) does freeze. Also, freeze plenty of bread - assorted varieties.

Sandwiches are a mainstay for motherless homes! I like to make and freeze a certain number for school lunches — the favorites are roast meat in the big sesame seed buns. It’s up to the diner to add the lettuce and mayo before hucking them in the lunchbag. I also lay in a supply of tinned fruit juice (individual) or Socco or shelf milk, tinned puddings and fruit, granola bars and lunch Baby Fox 2 Litre Jugs sacks. Also, I bag and freeze quantities of baked ham, beef, pork and chicken. The microwave thaws the food quickly before someone has a chance to phone for pizza. Breakfast, when Mom's gone walkabout isn't likely to be exciting. I freeze quantities of cinnamon rolls (sometimes homemade), English muffins and bran muffins. They reheat quickly in the toaster or microwave. Cereals that ['d not or- dinarily buy (sugary junk) find their way into the cupboards. Honestly, do you really care if after 50 weeks of good meals they have two weeks of junk? MAZATLAN PUERTO VALLARTA MEXICO — FORLESS 7 NITES from $459.00 p.p.
