Todd Smith Wednesday. She
had come down from Maine for
a visit with her brother, Horton
Gragg and family, and was call
ed home shortly after arriving
here because her husband's bro
hter had been killed in an air
plane crash. I think she said he
waa in the Air Force. I'm real
sorry, about this. Seems Helen
has had more than her share of
sadneas in the past few years.
Went out to the Parkway
School Friday morning to see
the foreign students who were
coming to Watauga County on
the World Food Tour. They
were late arriving and that gave
me an opportunity to visit with
Mrs. Roby Vines, Mrs. Asa
Reete, Mr?. Earl Petrey, Miss
Doris Perkis and Mrs. Martha
Jenkins, who formed a receiv
ing line. I'm sure I was not sup
posed to be in the line, but
when I saw all those friendly
faces I automatically started
shaking hands, too, and there
must have been 100 of them.
They were served lunch In the
school cafeteria and I waa seat
ed at a table with Yen Tier
Chang of the Republic of China,
Nasaar Golesorkhi of Tehran,
Iran, Miss Ella F. Ruegg of
Brazil and Khalil Lubanl of
Jordan. This was a wonderful
experience and I am real sorry
I could not go on the entire
tour with them. It was so good

I'm sending along a bread
recipe that is fool-proof ... (it
would have to be if I had any
luck with it) ... and it freezes
nicely. This was given to me by
Mrs. Lewis Wilson, who got it
from Ola Caudill, who got it
from Lona Quails and no tell

do appreciate. Mrs. Wilson's
thinking of me and passing
along such a wonderful recipe.
Old Fashioned Bread
(Makes 5 loaves)
5 lbs. plain flour
3 packages yeast
1 cup sugar
2 tablespoons salt
5 cups luke warm water
1 cup Crisco
Dissolve yeast in water and
add 2 table spoons sugar. Make
hole in center of flour, add the
Crisco and yeast mixture and
work until dough isn't sticky.
Let rise until double in bulk.
Work lightly, then cut into five
pieces and place in bread pans.
Grease top, let rise until double
in bulk. Bake 15 minutes at
ISO degrees, then 30 to 40 min
utes at 325 degrees. Cut recipe
in half if you don't need 5
loaves or freeze some for future
meals.
Your daddy and I went to the
Blowing Rock Country Club
opening Saturday night and
saw so many of our old friends
for the first time this season.
It was a lavish party and the
food was never better. Mrs.
Grimes, who was not feeling up
to par last year, looks wonder
ful now. Met Grace Hamrick,
whose column I read religiously
in the Charlotte Observer. She
is an excellent society reporter
and probably does other report
ing equally as well. She and
her husband have a home in
Blowing Rock and they are
there frequently. See you soon!
Love,
Mom
