This holiday eating has me all out of shape,
So I’ve made resolutions, which sound just great;
Until I see candy we received as a gift,
Then “Powie” my intentions take a shift —’til tomorrow
When the candy is gone and I’m too sick to eat,
I’ll return to my diet and eat only meat.
Most everyone I know de
clares they're going on a
diet, now since the holidays
are over. It sometimes takes
a right long time, however,
to catch up v.n. all the good
ies leit over and since I
can’t waste food, I try to
eat it up and, oh me! it’s
telling on my wardrobe, hat
and fifty? That’s me!
The house seems so quiet
since Christmas, but it’s
great to settle down in the
cld routine of two people.
We did enjoy having all our
company and we’re so glad
that they wanted to be here.
1 only Wish they would have
eaten more or taken it With
them.
Did you receive a tradi
tional holiday plant for
Christmas? I just read
some pointers about them
which might prove helpful.
T>e star shaped poinsettias,
the floral symbols of the
u, y season, thrive in a
sunny place. The flowers
Siioutd not touch a cold win
dow pane and should bo kept
away from drafts and radia
tors. Room temperature
should be between 65 and 70
degrees and the plant should
bo watered whenever the
surface becomes dry. Wheth
er your Christmas plant is
green or blooming, it will be
a festive reminder of a
happy season.
I just read an article in
the Insiders entitled “I’m
N rveus,” which amused me
and I’ll share a part of it
with you: I’m nervous. All
my friends are nervous. In
fact this may be the most
nervous New Year ever and
I’ll tell you why: (1) George
Gallop says that church-going
is down one per cent from
last year and four per cent
from 10 years ago. That’s
not good. (2) Brokers say
the market is “nervous.”
That’s Wall Street’s response
to nagging unknowns—the
unknown of the hour being
Vietnam. Even the Russians
are nervous about Vietnam.
(The Chinese aren’t nervous,
bu! their New Year is still a
couple weeks off). (3) The
American Telephone & Tele-

If You Came Through
Alive In ’6s—Be Sure You
Don't Get In a Fix In ’66.
An d speaking of being
nervous —it brings to mind
that during the cold wintry
weather, most of us would |
rather stay inside and that j
is good if We keep busy.
But being shut in. gives
more time for thinking and
worrying, which is bound to i
make one nervous—so try to j
take a short walk each day, j
or write a long letter to aj
distant friend. Sometimes,
when I can’t get out, I get;
on a cooking spree, which j
ends up disastrously we j
have to eat it!
Housekeeping Aids
Make a pin cushion by
covering a wad of steel wool |
with a pretty fabric. Keeps j
needles and pins sharp and
bright.
When a lamp bulb breaks
in the socket, turn off the
current. Now press a piece
of soap in the broken end
and turn left until the bulb
leaves the socket.
To reclose a plastic bag of
food, keep a package of pipe
cleaners in the kitchen
wrap one around the opened
end of the bag for a snug
closure.
I’ve tried this idea and it
proved out fine, so I’ll pass
it on:
If you’ve cooked too much
and are tired of the same
old warmed-overs, try fix
ing your own TV Dinners
and freezing them. They’ll
keep for quite a while and
some evening when you
come home too tired to cook,
allow yourself 30 minutes
for thawing of one of these
frozen dinners, then warm
them again. Comes in handy,,
lots of times.
Fashion Flashes:
Evening pants are popular
and glamorous. Although
hostess gowns are still very
much in evidence, at home
pants look newer and very
different.
Polka dets, the perennial
favorite, navy and white is
seen again in beautiful silk
ensembles.
Cruise cottons, featuring
mad scrambles of patterns,
colors and fabric textures,
ride the crest of the fashion
world. It’s a brave new
world for designer; who" have
united bold pep art prints
with sTipes, squares, dots
and large scale abstract j
prints.
Remember: Sufficient to j
(he d■ v is the evil thereof— 1
