sewing and I’d rather sew than
cook.”
Mrs. Gregory has a lot of
flowers in the summer and has a
lot of bulbs planted for spring
flowering. She also grows mint
tea, sage tea and parsley near the
house where if; is handy to get.
In the way of hobbies she does
some crewel work. She has done
crocheting and knitting but
doesn’t do much now because she
doesn’t have time to. She plays
the piano, just for her own
amusement she says.
Mary Alice says “Antiques is
one of our pride and joys.” She
has a spinning wheel which came
from her mother’s side of the
family and is looking forward to
learn to spin. She has a dough
tray, a dry sink, tables, pie and
jelly cupboards, desk, poster bed,
old bureaus, some old dishes and
a clock. She has done some
refinishing of this furniture.
Mrs Gregory gives credit to
her family for her being able to
keep the home going while
working and at the same time be
a leader in her various
organizations. She says, “During
the school year we all have to
chip in and help.” They also
found time to go ice skating
together at project 70.
This Home Economics teacher,
Scout and 4-H Leader has this to
say in regards to food seasonings,
“I feel spices and
seasonings should be used only to
bring out the flavor in foods and
not to change the flavor.” She
gives us her Girl Scout Troop’s
favorite milk drink and their
cookout favorite recipe. With the
spring season just commencing
there is a recipe for all the
delicious lettuce you’ll have in
vour gardens Then file the
special, frilly, luscious
strawberry tart recipe to serve
company as soon as the local
berries appear. A main dish' she
finds handy to prepare ahead of
time and speed her on her way is
ham loaf. And since today is Saint
Patrick’s Day here is an easy
but elegant jelly roll to try.
