Mashed Turnips.
Boil in salted water, until tender; mash and drain in a hot colander, working in butter, salt, and pepper. Mound up in a hot, deep dish, covered.
Ambrosia.
- 8 fine oranges, peeled and sliced.
- ½ grated cocoanut.
- ½ cup of powdered sugar.
Arrange slices of orange in a glass dish; scatter grated cocoanut thickly over them; sprinkle this lightly with sugar, and cover with another layer of orange. Fill the dish in this order, having a double quantity of cocoanut and sugar at top. Serve soon after it is prepared.
Café au Lait and Sponge-Cake.
To one pint strong made coffee, add the same quantity of boiling milk. The coffee should be first strained through muslin into the table-urn, then the milk poured in with it. Wrap the urn in a woollen cloth, if you have no “cozy,” for five minutes before serving. Send around sponge-cake, home-made or bought, with it.
