- 1 pint boiled green peas, mashed while hot, with pepper, butter, and salt.
- 2 beaten eggs.
- 1 cup of milk.
- Less than ½ cup prepared flour.
Beat eggs, milk, and mashed peas smooth, then add the flour and fry upon a griddle as you would breakfast-cakes.
Bananas, Oranges, Nuts and Raisins.
Pile bananas and oranges together, garnishing with green leaves. Put nuts and raisins upon two smaller dishes. Pass all at the same course.
Tea, Toasted Crackers, and Cheese.
If you have a hot-water pot and a spirit-lamp, make the tea upon the table a few minutes before it is needed, then cover the pot with a “cozy.” This is a pretty English fashion which, I am glad to see, is gaining ground in our country. Butter the split crackers while hot, and send around with the tea and cheese.
Fourth Week. Friday.
Yesterday’s Soup.
Take the fat from the top of the cake of soup-jelly you will find in the refrigerator, and warm the stock cautiously, lest it should scorch. It should not quite boil.
