Succotash.
Cut the corn from six or seven cobs; mix with it one-third the quantity of Lima beans; just cover with water, and stew gently half an hour. Turn off most of the water, add a cup of milk, and when this heats, a great lump of butter rolled in flour, with pepper and salt. Simmer half an hour longer, stirring up often.
Lettuce.
Pick apart the heads and pile upon pounded ice, on a glass dish. Pass vinegar, pepper, salt, and powdered sugar with it.
Apple Pudding.
Sliced tart apples; bread-crumbs; butter; sugar; cinnamon.
Butter a pudding-dish very well, and put in a layer of crumbs; then dots of butter; next, sliced apples strewed with sugar and cinnamon—more buttered crumbs. Repeat the layers in this order until your dish is full, with crumbs on top. Bake, covered, half an hour—or forty minutes for a large dish. Turn out, pour liquid sauce over it, and eat hot with more.
Second Week. Thursday.
