Peggy Straigis sees
herself as an: ‘‘old
fashioned cook.” Peggy
enjoys baking bread,
preparing homemade
ravioli and pierogi, or
making her mother-in-
law’s recipe for Stuffed
Pancake Filling. Most
recipes Peggy uses are
those she learned from
her mother.
Peggy’s recipe for
Quick Doughnuts starts
with a loaf of Rich’s
frozen bread dough.
These doughnuts are
simple to make. Allow the
dough to rise, cut into
desired shapes, fry until
golden brown. After
draining, shake quick
doughnuts in powdered
sugar.
Peggy uses the same
dough for pierogi and
ravioli. She fills her
pierogi with: a potato-
cheese mixture. Ground
chuck and spinach filling
is used for the ravioli.
Peggy likes to’ prepare
large amounts of pierogi
and ravioli, then freeze
them. This way she
always has something on
hand for a quick meal.
Stuffed Pork Chops with’
Potato Pancake Filling
are delicious and unusual.
The filling is made by
combining grated
potatoes, grated onion,
fried hamburger or
sausage and fried bacon.
Although Stuffed Pork
Chops with" Potato’ Pan-
cake Filling do take some
preparation time, they
make a tasty meal.
A native of Dallas,
Peggy and her husband
have lived in their home
on Memorial Highway
since 1973. The couple has
two children, J.J., age 9, a
student © at Dallas
Township School, and
Martin, who is four years
old. John, a U.S. Army
Veteran who served in
Viet Nam, is employed in
the marketing division of
Bell Telephone Company.

time she has studying new

completed a mural of an
oasis on the wall of her
shop, which adds an in-
teresting quality to the
room.
Swimming in their pool
and camping are leisure
activities the Straigis
family enjoys. Since J.J.

are definitely on the
agenda at this time of
year. Fishing at Harveys

The society is currently
engaged in a number of
activities to celebrate the
bicentennial discovery of
Harvey’s Lake. The lake
was disocovered in 1781
by Benjamin Harvey, a
Plymouth settler who was
captured by the British
and Indians in 1780 during
the Revolutionary War.
He was taken to Fort
Niagra in New York and
after he was released in
the spring of 1781 he found
the lake on his homeward
journey.
The historical society is
undertaking a landmark
campaign to provide
bicentennial markers at
the Lake. A bicentennial
parade and ball is also
planned for Aug. 29-30.
Area residents are also
invited to donate old
postcards and
photographs of Harvey's
Lake to the historical
society for display at the
new elementary school in
the Fall.
