The ones we have contacted are thrilled with the idea of a local outlet for their work.” Admittedly an ‘‘experiment’’, the three operators stress that they want creative pieces—this could include paintings, sculpture, original tole work, decoupage, knitting and other fine handmade articles, and so forth. “We definitely do not want such unoriginal things as ‘paintings-by-number’,”” Mrs. Samuels stated. Although antiques as such will not be sold, owners of “things of quality’ may offer them to the shop to be sold on consignment. ‘We have ac- cepted a chandelier—not particularly old, but good—and we will probably accept other such articles,” Mrs. Lemmond said. But their main purpose, they repeat, is to sell the work produced by artists and craft- smen from this area. All three women have taken an active part in past years in the Back Mountain Memorial Library Auction. Each of them enjoys needlepoint and knitting. Mrs. Bittenbender also paints.

Page Nine How Not To Impress Three years ago when Chris Cancro was a young bride of just a few weeks, her father-in- law dropped in on his way home from a business trip to have dinner with “the kids.”” She and Patrick. her husband, hustled about their tiny kitchen to prepare a meal he'd never forget. They did, and he never has. The menu read: Steak, baked potatoes. French string beans, nd tossed salad- an elegant menu fit for a king. It was also to he the first meal she’d ever cooked in their apartment, and the gas stove was a bit un- familiar to her. Chris had always cooked with electricity before, and she assumed that the broiler was inside the oven. She popped the steaks into the oven, turned the indicator to B™ (for broil, naturally), and, having already baked the potatoes, put them into the pull- out drawer she figured was a warmer. Twenty minutes later, she discovered to her chagrin that they had baked steaks and broiled-hurned potatoes. Her fathertin-law’s comment? “It sure was a good salad.” Well, the saying ‘‘you've come a long way, baby’ could certainly apply to the culinary abilities which Chris now possesses. Not only has she learned to tell the difference between a broiling unit and an oven, but she’s learned to whip up some pretty fine concoctions on. top of the stove too. Much of the cooking she does is fast, and virtually all of it is well planned. It has to be—Chris is a graduate fellew in mathematics at Wilkes Cuilege who teaches two undergraduate sections, tutors and grades papers in addition to attending her own graduate level classes. Because she often leaves their Harvevs Lake home at 7:30 a.m. and doesn’t get home until 7 p.m. or later, the meals she prepares inust be good but easy. (The recipe for Skid Road Stroganoff included below is one of her favorite such dinners). Chris has several hints for housewives who have schedules as busy as hers. She suggests that menus be made out a week al a time (in her case, she prepares the menus and shopping list and Patrick does the shopping); that casseroles he prepared ahead of time and refrigerated ‘or frozen until ready to be heated; that the ingredients for one quick meal always be kept on hand—this for the time when any effort other than turning the handle of a can opener is just too much. With typical good humor, she also suggests that eating out a lot or getting Pat to fix supper saves time and energy! Before moving te Harveys Lake ‘in August, Chris and Patrick Cancro lived for two years in the Gateway Apart- ments in Edwardsville. Pat is the business instructor at the Wilkes-Barre Campus of Penn State and before beginning her graduate studies full time, Chris taught eighth grade math at Valley West. They are presently busy decorating their newly purchased home, for which Chris somehow finds time to sew draperies and curtains. She's a multi-talented gal who (now) impresses even Pat's (J. KOZEMCHAK SR.) father. When the elder Cancros came to visit ‘the kids” this summer, Chris served several never-to-he-forgotten meals— but no steaks and baked potatoes!
