A little water may be added if necessary. Shape candy as desired. Place on waxed paper and refrig erate. Chill at least 8 hours. Dip in melted semi-sweet chocolate. ANSWER Shirley Miller wanted recipes using ground cherries and asked where the scarce berries can be found. Thanks to Mrs. Samuel Weaver, Myerstown, for sending a recipe. She writes tirat she grows ground cherries from seeds she orders from Jung or Burgess Seed catalog. Sometimes ground cherries are called husk tomato. When you start the seed in the garden, the plants come up like weeds, which you need to recognize as the plant. It does not replant well. As far as she knows, ground cherries are only used in pies. Ground Cherry Pie 2V4 cups ripe ground cherries % cup brown sugar 1 teaspoon cinnamon 2 tablespoons Clear-Jell 1 cup water In kettle, boil ground cherries, water, sugar, and cinnamon until cherries are wrinkly. Take Clear-Jell and water and make a thin paste and stir in with ground cherries until thickened. (I fill with half apple slices so the taste isn’t so strong). Pour mixture into pie shell and bake until crust is lightly browned. alerted local media, and staffed each event Local dairy princesses also helped with the milk mus tache photos and distributed ma terials to people waiting to receive free bone density tests.
