Busy schedule requires easy to make recipes By CHARLOT M. DENMON Staff Correspondent Pat Nicely of Dallas, this week’s Dallas Post cook,is an account coor- dinator for Ambassador Greeting Cards, a division of the Hallmark Company. In her position, she covers the entire Northeastern area of Pennsylvania conducting semi- nars for the salespersons under her supervision, hiring new salespeople, training them and setting up depart- ments in the 51 locations she covers. Her work takes up much of her time so Pat has collected a variety of easy and quick to prepare reci- pes, as well as nutritious, for her husband, Edward, and her two chil- dren, Adam and Amber. Adam is in third grade, is right- fielder on the Phillies team in the Back Mountain Minor League; and plays on a Back Mountain soccer team and collects comic books. Amber attends the Little People Day Care Center and likes to do sketches for her mother and dad. She also is her brother’s best cheer- leader. ) position, Pat worked part time as a representative for a food broker and since she graduated from Penn State University with a degree in English, she did substitute teaching for a while. Her husband is employed on a regular schedule at InterMetro Industries, which proves to be very helpful since he is usually home early enough to take Adam to base- ball and soccer practice. In Pat’s work, her hours are often irregular. Pat recently attended seminars in Kansas City, home office of the company; White Plains, N.Y.; and in Philadelphia. She enjoys cooking, but now usually prepares fast and easy to prepare foods such as the recipes she shares with this week’s Dallas Post readers. When she has leisure time, Pat spends it with the family. Post readers will find Pat’s reci- pes just as delicious as they are easy to prepare.
