Ida’s Notebook Ida Risser As I’ve mentioned before we’re building a log house. To look at the outside, you would think that it is finished, but the inside will take a few more months of work. Allen spends his days at the site with the workmen. He has brushed a pre servative on all the outside logs. It is a job that I would not like especially being high up on a lad der. The large fireplace will be made of sandstone and I’m hoping it will not disintegrate the way that our walk-in limestone one has. the stone crumbles and needs to be swept up quite often. We’ll use a hand-hewn beam from our old combam and a board from my father’s bam for the mantel.

The house is 44-feet long and the full basement seems huge. My husband tells me that half of it will be his workshop. Will he be able to make a book case that we need? I’m a bit concerned about the colors that I’ve selected for the kitchen cabinets and counter top. But, I’m hoping that I can live with them. We have not chosen our lights or rugs as yet and that will be another agonizing deci sion. However, we have more than enough outlets in each room as the regulations require six in the liv ing room.

For Fall ’9l, fashion is drawing much of its inspiration by looking back to the ’6os and ’7os. Sixties-revisited looks, include pantsuits, A-line dresses, shifts, plastic and vinyl. Surfacing from the Seventies are patchworks, batiks, beads, scarf shirts and cro chet. But, in true 1990’s style, both decades are happily mixed and often garnish with space age touches. Newest looks include cat suits, spandex leggings and dres ses that are nothing but a long jacket over opaque tights and lots of leg. For the young - and daring - there are plenty of Madonna inspired, pop-icon looks in beaded corsetry that is printed, even feath ered, for “outside” dressing. Other ’9o’s touches include The house is built against a hill and there is no view from the back. However, this is not the case from the front as there is a specta cular sweeping view from the two bay windows of a large meadow and woods. A deer was seen there this spring and that is unusual for our area. ★ BAKING MOLASSES k BARBADOS MOLASSES * BLACK STRAP MOLASSES * HONEY * PEANUT LUTTER * FUNNEI, CAKE MIX * SHOOFLY PIE MIXES SPECIAL 1 NOW X • V/U SPECIAL 1 />0 NOW X • \/v7 FSreaaSßl Ik- - i lO<- j Women’s Clofhing Reflects Past Native American motifs, from fringe to Indian beading, on every thing from jackets to cocktail dresses.

For the ultimate in plaid mixing, there are plaid-patched coats worn over coordinating plaid suits and plaid-patched jack ets worn over just about everything. Watch for skirts with hemlines that slant to one side and poncho skirts created from large rectan gles that fall into handkerchiefs points. There’s renewed interest in dirndls and pleated skirts. They look freshest in short versions, such as a flirty pleated chiffon with a matching wool jacket, or short, full skirts propped up with petticoats for evening dressing. The trench is reinvented over and over again, as as jacket, coat, or dress, in fabrics as diverse as sateen, gabardine, crepe and polyurethane. The bomber jacket is interpreted in even more fabrics than the trench. Consider wool, suede, bright vinyl, fur trimmed, quilted or sequinned.
