A SALE STARTED THIS TALE

Dear Amy: We are a one car family and my husband has to use it to go to work. However, I do have a neighbor who offers me a ride every time she goes shopping or to the beauty shop. One day a store downtown was having a terrific sale of breast of chicken (my husband loves breast of chicken), and my neighbor called me up and told me to be at her house by one o’clock and that we would go together. / At one o’clock I was coming up her front walk when her door opened up and there she stood, still in her night clothes; her hair in curlers, saying good-by to another neighbor. I was quite disturbed and angry*and it must have showed because when I exclaimed, “You’re not dressed yet’”, she said, “So what!” and slammed the door in my face. Now. Amy, I have always been very nice to this woman for the favors she did for me. I have bought her small pieces of jewelry and have taken her and her husband out to dinner. I don’t think I deserved that kind > of treatment. Do you? Disturbed Dear Disturbed: No, I don’t think so either. Perhaps your friend was annoyed at being held up by her neighbor so your remark added fuel to the fire and she exploded. By now she’s probably as sorry about the incident as you are. Unless you learn to become your own chauffeur or have hubby run your around, you must overlook a lot. accept even more and complain very little! • • • Dear Amy: I am eleven years old and I am taking piano lessons. My mother makes me take them and I just hate it. I hate practicing, too. What should I do? Joanne Dear Joanne: It’s a waste of money for your parents to invest in piano lessons when you dislike it so strongly. Ask them to save their money for a few years until the time that you would like to resume. As you grow older, you may realize the importance of

having a talent that can bring you popularity, fun, culture and happiness. • • • Dear Amy: I don’t know whether you answer this type of question or not If not, cduld you tell me where I could find the answer. I bake our bread as well as rolls, etc. Why is homemade more crumbly than bakery bread? I have used different ingredients, baked differently and tried just-about every thing I could think oL The bread we buy has very few crumbs, if any. I’m sure there is a special ingredient that’s used, but I don’t know What it is. Hope you can help. / Carrie Dear Carrie: This is not a cooking column but I too was curious to know the answer. The Home Eco- | nomics Department of Rutgers University advised me that storebought bread has added- stabilizers to keep it fresh which tends to giVe the bread a softer texI tore which also prevents crum- , bling. Interesting to know, isn’t it • • • I Dear Amy: I am fifteen and have a question in my mind that’s bothering me. A long time ago a boy liked r me but I didn’t like him. Now I don’t know if I like him or not —but I think about him all the time, think everything he does is great, can’t wait to see him, get nervous when I talk to him, think everything he says is like I music, think he’s the cutest boy i in school, tingle when he passes i or says hello and I get mad when ! he talks to other girls. • I don’t think I really like him, though.
