1 continue to find Hoke County
citizens who are not acquainted
with Extension Teletip. This is a
toll free number that can be called
and a request made for a special
tape.
We have a brochure with the
listing of the tapes. Come by the
Extension Office in the Lester
Building or call 875-2162 and one
will be mailed to you. My favorite
tapes are #101, Best Food Buys

Recipe of the Week using one of
the best food buys. I started to give
you the best food buys and recipe
but then you might not call. So do

When I attended the National
Home Agents Meeting at the
Greenbrier White Sulphur Springs.
West Virginia I attended a
workshop given by some of their
chefs. One of them said recipes are
guides so add your personal touch.
I really believe that. I have
prepared the following recipe with
tuna and liked it very much but
now I want to try it and add onions
and cheese. You try it and I think
you will like it to. This one came to
me through Alice Lancaster from
Jeannette McLauchlin.
SALMON FLL'FF
Beat 4 eggs
1/2 cup evaporated milk
1 can cream of mushroom soup
salt, pepper, parsley
Mix the above. Add 2 cups crumbs
and a medium can of salmon.
Grease casserole dish. Cook at 350
degrees, for 45 minutes.
A YEAR OF "MELLOW
YELLOW"
This year's home fashion colors
are like the pastels one would find
in a Florentine villa. They are soft
and relaxing, not to dusty, but
timeless. They are the colors of a
da Vinci fresco. Forecasts indicate
that colors will be slightly grayed,
but on the whole, they will have
more life than the colors of the
past year.
If any color will predominate, it
will be yellow . Various shades of
yellow - all mellow - are being us
ed in combination with blue. red.
pink or peach. The yellow in
fluence has developed because of a
growing national interest in the
country life style of the middle and
southwest or the western frontier.
Earth tones of prairie colors will
be considerably yellower. Also
seen will be yellows derived from
an interest in solar energy. Certain
colors like green will have a yellow
influence. Shades of yellow include
banana - as a true yellow -- and
neutrals like butternut and
custard. Other fashionable colors
that will appear often are various
shades of rose and Chinese
cucumber (celadon).
Blues will come in a variety ot
rich tones like mountain blues, teal
and cornflower. Lavender blues
and the periwinkle reminiscent of
Victorian times will also make an
impact, especially in the dining
room, bedroom and bath.
Also in the bedroom will be
shades of English rose mingled
with cranberry. Rooms in 83 will
have a traditional look, and the
kitchen will be no exception. Gone
are bold designs and colors that
once were fashionable.
The kitchen now will be
decorated in muted tones, especial
ly sand, almond, and white. The
look will be traditional, func
tional. Home fashions for this
coming year are elegant and
classic, and no one color will over
whelm. Colors will be used in com
bination for a muted effect that
will be easy to live with. Accent
colors will include black, silver,
red, and rich opulent colors will
also be available for those who
want them. But the basic trend for
the early '80's will continue to be
soft pastels.

Recorded
Almost three inches ot rain fell
here during January. Hoke County
weather obserser Robert Gatlin

predict the a\crage rainfall because
amounts for the last few years have
been erratic, Gatlin said.
According to estimates compiled
by Gatlin. last year during the
month, 6.45 inches tell, in 1981
1 .05 inches, and in W80 4.60 inches
fell.
During this January 2.80 inches
