84-Lancastar Farming, Saturday, December 20,1986 home economist Sheila Arnold suggests some of these easy to-make specialties: marzipan strawberries, cheese balls, holiday breads in their own waxed gift box, and dilled carrot sticks. last Minute Gift Ideas bread honors the generosity of St. Lucia. “I make mine ahead of time and put it in the freezer for Christmas morning,” Sheila explains. “We like it sliced, buttered on both sides and toasted in a frying pan.
