“AUNT
PATTY"
DEAR AUNT PATTY:
My wife and I have been married
for just a little over a year now -
and we have a great marriage. If I
had to do it all over again, I'd
marry the same woman.
My only complaint is my wife’s
cooking. She can’t cook, no matter
how hard she tries.
When my wife lived at home with
her mother, she never had to do any
cooking; therefore, she never really
learned how. I have tried to drop
subtle hints that maybe she should
take a cooking lesson or two, but I
guess they haven’t sunk in.
I have been living with this prob-
lem for over a year now and evi-
dently my wife must think she’s a
good cook because she’s never done
anything to change.
I guess the reason I'm writing to
you, Aunt Patty, is not because I
expect you to correct this problem
in your column, but because I'm
hoping my wife will read this and
put two and two together.
STARVING AT HOME
DEAR STARVING:
Why not sign up for cooking les-
sons together? Who says the wife
must do all the cooking? Also ask
your families for cooking sugges-
tions and family favorites.
DEAR AUNT PATTY:
My daughter is a high school
softball player at a local high school
in the Back Mountain. She’s not a
superstar, but she’s at least an
average player and plays in almost
every game.
My problem is not with my daugh-
ter, but with my husband. My hus-
band sometimes acts like she is a
professional being paid for her abil-
ity and that he’s her manager. He
carries on with her when she
doesn’t play well as he thinks she
should, when he thinks the coach
doesn’t let her play long enough,
when he thinks the umpires make a
wrong call against her and he com-
plain to the newspapers if they don’t
write enough good things about our
daughter.
Aunt Patty, this has become
embarrassing, not only to me but to
my daughter as well. I know she
doesn’t like to see her father act
like that, but she respects him too
much to say anything to him about
it.
I have kept my mouth shut so far
this season, but our daughter is only
a sophomore and has two years of
softball ahead of her. She enjoys
if her father’s antics continue, she’ll
give it up out of sheer embarrass-
ment.
Do you have any suggestions?
SYMPATHETIC MOTHER
Explain to your daughter how
lucky she is to have a father who is
interested in her and her activities.
As long as your husband is doing no
real harm, just grin and bear it.
Afterall, when it comes to sports -
boys will be boys!
DEAR AUNT PATTY:
Our children are begging my hus-
band and I to install an inground
pool. To be very honest with you, we
simply cannot afford one. Many of
their friends have them and our
children don’t want to feel left out.
What should we do?
: TD.
DEAR T.D.:
You sound like a pair of disillu-
sioned parents trying to buy love.
Don’t be afraid to tell your children
no. In the end they will respect you
for it. Otherwise they will see you
as gutless and will blame you when
there is trouble. We are living in a
child-dominated society. (Remem-
ber the Cabbage Patch Doll phe-
nomenon!) When we try to buy love,
the price goes up, as it does with
other commodities. The child who
senses his parents feel guilty will
collect his frivolity, then think up
something else so he can collect
again. Children can be expert emo-
tional blackmailers. Simple solution
- learn to say no! Ha
DEAR AUNT PATTY: ;
I recently moved to Dallas from
the Mid West. I am unfamiliar with
some of the food I have eaten here
and would like some recipes. Can
gies, poppyseed roll, and stromboli.
Thanks! en
DEAR READERS:
I need your help. If you have a
good recipe for any of the above
mentioned, please share it with us.
DEAR AUNT PATTY: LE
My husband’s company has been
doing a lot of unexpected firing
recently. My husband is in a con-
stant stae of worry. He comes home
from work exhausted, angry, and
with indigestion. What should I do to
help him? BEAN
ALL FIRED UP
DEAR ALL FIRED UP:
Question him about what is hap-
pening and get him to talk about it,
thing you both enjoy but haven’t
done for a while. Invite someone to
dinner who is unrelated to your
husband’s place of work. Show him
some fun and tender loving care.
Also schedule an appointment with
his physician for a physical. Stress
often causes ulcers. Good luck.

Patty,” c/o The Dallas Post, P.O.
