Timely Tips for Women By Doris W. Thomas Extension Home Economist OVEN MEALS SAVE TIME AND ENERGY Complete oven meals are time and energy savers. The energy you save is both your own and the utility com- pany’s. The most important part of an oven meal is the planning. You have to choose foods that cook well at the same temperature. Oven meals should contain a food high in protein value, some vegetables or fruits, and enough carbohydrate foods to satisfy energy needs. When the temperatures vary for preparing the foods, you will need to compromise. It’s important to cook the protein at the recommended temperature. Vegetables and most desserts can be cooked at temperatures 25 degrees lower for a longer time or 25 degrees high for a shorter time than recom- mended. Place foods requiring more heat in glass or ceramic pans and cook the other foods in aluminum or stainless steel pans. Glass or ceramic pans retain heat more than metal pans. When placing food in the oven, be sure to allow for proper heat circulation. Place the pans so they don’t touch each other or the sides of the oven. No pan should be directly over another pan. Reserve the top rack for foods which require some browning. You can also heat left-over or canned vegetables in the oven but it will take two to three times longer than heating on a burner. If the meat dish takes 45 minutes to cook, most vegetables will cook within that time if cut in ‘medium-size pieces and placed in a small amount of water in a tightly-covered container. Don’t cook fresh green leafy vegetables in the oven. They must be cooked quickly to preserve color and texture. Being well dressed despite the high cost of clothes requires a creative use of what’s already in your closet. Few people can afford to buy all new clothes no matter how the fashions change, so start with what you have. Try on each dress, pantsuit, skirt and jacket--if they're not exactly in style, what can you do to change them? If they don’t fit can you alter them? For example, add a new look to your pants. The cuffed look is new. Buy a remnant of coordinated material and add cuffs to your older pants. Perhaps you could add a pocket or some other trim to the top and come up with an outfit that looks entirely new. Or, buy a larger remnant and make a coordinated skirt in an easy-to-sew knit. The skirt will give you twice as much wear from the pants top. Since the classic look is the newest trend in fashion, perhaps you can resurrect some of the pleated skirts or cardigan sweater sets you've been keeping in storage. With a few changes they could look like new. Taking better care of what you have is another im- plication of the higher prices of yard goods and ready-to- wear clothes. You need to pay more attention to care labels and other good care practices that will keep your clothes looking like new. P.P. & L.
