MS Phone 77:t-T.‘)Hi Kme rgencv 77:i-Ui:U It was another quiet week at Open Door. With this weather, it is a blessing, as people are working and can still get out. Very many mornings like Monday, and no one will want to get out. Open Door received another thank you note this week, from a family which received holiday gifts. It is very rewarding when you know how people appreciate this small sign of thoughtfulness and kindness. Thanks to one of the volunteers and her mother, who spent a day in the Pantry, cleaning and straightening shelves. All are labeled, and it is very neat.

If there is one key to good manners, it is confidence. No matter that what you do is frowned upon by Emily Post, Amy Vanderbilt and your mother-in-law if you do it confidently, with assurance, things that might be considered major>gaffes, had someone else attempted, will be accepted, at worst, as minor eccentricities. If you don't relish a Mad Hatter reputation, however, a basic knowledge of good manners will stand you in good stead. Even something as simple as partaking of poultry can present gnawing problems. Unless it’s served up ala king, it can be difficult to eat. Dissecting can be disconcerting. Now on informal occasions, one can just pick it up, pull it apart and pack it in. But if you're trying for class, that's crass. Instead.,. Spear the whole, halved or quartered fowl with fork and

sever at the joint with your knife, cutting through connective tissue. Lay oddments to the side of the plate and concentrate on the meatiest portions. Hold steady with fork and slice meat from bone in the direction of the grain. Cut to comfortable size and eat. If any of the meat cannot be removed from the bone in this manner, abandon it and hope that the next course will sate your stomach. The friendly folks at Ore-Ida Foods (they’re the frozen potato people) asked me to prepare a booklet to explain the ins and outs of eating elegantly. It’s called “Ore-Ida's All-Rightas arid All-Wrongas: Eating Manners for Big Potatoes and Small Fries.” You can get your free copy by sending your name and address to Ore-Ida Foods, Inc., P.O.

From the kitchen... Everyone loves stuffing, and here’s a splendid way to indulge one’s lust, for that buttery, breadcrumby concoction without having to prepare a whole bird. A deep pocket can be cut in thick center-cut rib pork chops, filled with stuffing and closed again with a toothpick. The key is to have the chops cut about lVi inches thick. .Your meat man will make the pocket for you, or, if you are feeling adventuresome, you can do it Yourself. Just be careful to keep the opening as small as possible.

STUFFED PORK CHOPS Degree of difficulty: Moderate Time: lVfc hours, with to hour preparation time. Servings: Four Cost: Moderate Ingredients: 4 thick rib pork chops with a pocket 5 tablespoons butter 3 tablespoons oil 1 medium onion, chopped 2 cloves garlic, minced to cup (about S large caps) mushrooms, chopped to teaspoon dried oregano to teaspoon salt Freshly ground pepper 1 cup breadcrumbs 1 cup dry white wine Preheat the oven to3 50 degrees. Heat 3 tablespoons of butter and 3 tablespoons of oil in a heavy skillet. Saute the onion and garlic over medium heat until tender. Add the chopped mushrooms to the skillet and stir to combine. Stir in the oregano, salt and a few grindings of pepper. In a bowl, wet down the breadcrumbs with three tablespoons of wine. Stir. Add the moistened breadcrumbs to the skillet and combine with the onion and mushroom mixture. Taste for seasoning. Stuff some of the mixture into the pocket of each pork chop. Do not overfill. Close the opening with a toothpick. ) Melt the rfemaining 2 tablespoons of butter in j& Dutch oven or other ovenproof casserole. Brown the chops well on each side. Put the remaining stuffing (this is important because it thickens the sauce) and wine in the Dutch oven with the chops. Sprinkle with salt and pepper, cover, and bake for 1 hour. For serving, place a chop on each plate and spoon the sauce over it. >

The meeting was adjourned, and coffee and cookies were enjoyed. Regular members are reminded that 1978 dues should be paid.

Energy-Saving Tips For Automatic Washers You can save energy by using a cold-water rinse for every washload, and it’s just as effective as a warm one, say experts. You can also / conserve by using a warns wash instead of Jor water for clothes that are not heavily soiled. Be sure and adjust the water level in your washer to the size of the load being washed. You’ll save on water, as well as avoiding problems such as lint. You don’t need full wash time for clothes that are only slightly soiled, so keep that in mind when selecting your wash time. Be sure and use the proper amount of detergent for each load, to eliminate the need for rewashes.

Cleaning Tip To clean carved furniture, dip a rather stiff-bristled paint brush in paraffin, hang in the open air till it becomes almost dry, and use it for removing the dust from mouldings and carved parts. Wipe the brush with a rag after using each time and wash the brush when it becomes rather dirty.
