Mrs. Marvay Is A Marvel
Especially when She's Cooking
Anna Marvay’s last name
actually rhymes with ‘“har-
vey,” but there are many
people—her . children and
grandchildren included—who
insist that it should rhyme with
“Marvel.” And a marvel she is,
especially when it comes to
cooking.
Mrs. Marvay is the mother of
Anna Kardell of 61 Johnson St.,
Shavertown, and one day last
week Anna managed to per-
suade her Mom to share with
Dallas Post readers a few of her
many Czechoslovakian recipes.
Anna is convinced that Mrs.
Marvay’s Holupki (pigs-in-
blankets) have had a lot to do
with eliminating any generation
gap in her family—her own
youngsters, Donna and Frank
Jr., stuff not only themselves
with Gram’s piggies but bring
along their young friends to
help! The fact that Gram
happens to have a keen sense of
humor and believes that love is
as important to life as salt is to
cooking is also apparent to the
~ members of her large family.
A native of Austria-Hungary,
Mrs. Marvay came to America
50 years ago, settling in Plains.
It was in Plains that she met -
and married George Marvay, a
boiler room superintendent at
the Lehigh Valley Coal Co. until
his retirement at the age of 75.
Mr. Marvay a Hungarian, was
partial to the tasty dishes his
young bride prepared for him
Anne Kardell—is prepared for Mrs. Kardell’s family by her
mother, Anna Marvay.
and Anne Kardell recalls of her
‘‘growing-up years’ that “we
may not have had a lot of
money—but ‘we ‘always had
plenty of good food to eat!”
Mrs. Marvay learned to make
dozens of delicious meals out of
the always plentiful staples—
potatoes, cabbage and onions.
Her Holupki (‘not piggies—
that’s not a nice name”) are
trim little packages of rice and
ground meat which are
wrapped to stay wrapped; Mrs.
Marvay disdains. the use of
toothpicks or string to keep the
cabbage leaves from falling
apart. She is a zealot when it
comes to cleanliness in the
kitchen, always wearing a
bandana to keep her hair in
place and washing dishes and
silverware with a ferocity
which tickles daughter Anne.
She admits to missing her
large family, all of whom are
now grown. :
So far as she is concerned, the
best time of the year is
Christmas Eve, when the
family gathers for Holy Supper.
Her dining table that night is
turned into a veritable groaning
board, complete with sour
mushroom soup, pierogi, fried
fish, lima beans mashed with
garlic, bobalki and cooked
prunes with powdered sugar. It
‘is a grand occasion, bringing
together young and old alike, all
the members of her self-
described ‘League of Nations
Family.”
Special thanks must go to
Anne Kardell for help in
‘“‘translating’’ her mother’s
recipes: like “most truly fine
cooks, Mrs. Marvay cooks more
by instinct than by measuring
cup. The recipes given below
are the result of painstaking
collaboration by Mom Marvay
and her daughter—Mrs.
Marvay did the cooking and
Anne, pencil and paper.in hand,
ollowed her around the kitchen,
measuring the ingredients as
they were used.

Topless Sandwiches
For Weight Watchers
If you're concerned about
extra calories, you could leave
the lid off your sandwich. But
don’t cut bread out of your
meals entirely, says Ruth Buck,
Extension nutritionist at The
Pennsylvania State University.
Everyone needs enriched or
whole grain bread or cereal
products in their day’s meals—
whether they're dieting or not.
These foods are a source of B
vitamins—important for
helping body cells get and use
the energy out of food. And the
iron in these foods is needed to
carry oxygen in the blood-
stream.
At least four servings of
breads or cereals is recom-
mended each day, and one slice
of bread is considered a ser-
ving. So if you eat a sandwich,
you're getting two full slices—
or half the quota for the day in
just one meal, reminds Mrs.
Buck. Cereal products are also
found in other foods—breakfast
cereals, rice, noodles, spaghetti
and macaroni
home of Mrs. Andrew J. Sordoni
Jr., 1710 Wyoming Ave., Forty
Fort, concluded the list of
homes.
Mrs. Ronald Ertley, general
chairman of the house tour,
reports that the day-long affair
was possibly the most suc-
cessful in the event's five-year
history. Anproximately 1,000
tickets were sold for the house
tour, while an additional 400
persons attended a luncheon at
the Irem Temple Country Club
in the afternoon.
A fashion show highlighted
the luncheon, and with new fall
fashions emphasizing plaids
and tweeds and several elegant
at-home gowns. Provided by the
Hollywood Shop of Wilkes-
Barre, the fashions were
modeled by six sustaining
members of the Jr. League:
Mrs. John Robinson, Mrs. Paul
Griesmer, Mrs. Lee J. Mec-
Carthy, Mrs. Robert Hughes,
Mrs. Donald Smith and Mrs.
Todd Maguire.
An antique chest purchased
by the organization’s sustaining
members was chanced off and
won by Mrs. Robert Casper.
The chest was selected by Mrs.
Richard Rudolph, Mrs. John
Robinson Jr. and Mrs. John
Conyngham III.
Proceeds from the house tour
are returned to tthe community
by way of the Jr. League’s
Community Trust Fund, a fund
which provides = financial
resources for selected
educational, cultural and civic
programs. In the past, the
Community Trust Fund has
helped to maintain the Meals-
on-Wheels project, the
Osterhout Library, and Planned
Parenthood of Luzerne County.
