Blendor Simplifies Cook's Work

By JOAN SCHOFMAKER Times Food Editer

HE NEWEST vogue in cooking circles is the lack of cooking plus simple

methods which equal new taste treats. The blendor, on the market under several trade names, is the reason for the new trend in the kitchen. Foods placed in the blendor are chopped, grated, ground, pulverized, pureed, mixed, liquified, blended or churned, depending upon the needs, The new method of cooking without heat by mechanical chafige permits the use of uncooked fruits and vegetables in the diet in a new way. Cocktails, whether they are from fresh or frozen fruits and vegetables or alcoholic beverages, can be made simply at home. The blendor mixes a drink from three to five seconds. Baby foods become simple to fix when mother can feed fresh,

uncooked fruits and vegetables in new forms. Fresh apple sauce, for example, can be

made vith uncooked apples. Adult foods can be just as

MUFFIN’ THE PROBLEM—Brand muffins. : |

Forced Out of Picture

for it is not always possible for the bride and bridegroom to take time off from their jobs. But there's no need for any girl to sacrifice any of the glamour or excitement that is due every, bride on her wedding day. » n #” IF THERE is no time for a honeymoon at least you can plan an extravagant evening. Dine at the best place iu town, or go dancing in the. most glamorous spot you know. Have a bottle of champagne at dinner and order your favorite foods. But make it a special occasion.

If you have decided that orange blossoms and a veil are out of the question, choose a flowered wreath of a hat with a veil. Have the fun of wedring something borrowed, something blue, just like the traditional bride. : * Be sure you have a brand new permanent, a fresh manicure and if you can, indulge in a facial the day before to give you that radiant look. Spray your favorite perfume over your hair, your veil, your lace handkerchief for an aura of romance and glamour. So if you have decided that you are heading for a wedding on a Saturday and coming back to work on Monday, try to get both families to understand your point ‘of view. If “you positively have no time for a

honeymoon, do plan to be married on a Saturday. If you live at home, your mother can plan a simple wedding luncheon or afternoon tea for the bridal party. Chicken salad, rolls, white cake, ice cream and a punch are perfect. . If you're “living away from home and your family can’t come for the big event, perhaps a friend will act as your hostess. Or you and yor future husband can arrange a simple luncheon at a hotel for a few friends, if you like. No matter where you are married, church, city hall or ‘at home, you will want one attendant, I'm sure. ” ” ” » FOR THIS SORT .of informal wedding, you should wear a simple crepe dress or one of this season's new full skirted cottons in blue or any color you like except gray which is considered correct only for second marriages. A small flowered hat with a veil can take the place of the usual bridal wreath. Your one attendant may wear anything she chooses except, of course, black. This is a new era. So long as convention and good taste are served, you can make up your own rules as you go along.
