om SOCIETY — PERSON. DOROTHY RAYMER, Society Editor Pricey, March 13, 1953 THe een KEY WEST CITIZEN Page 5 SHOP HOPPING with JAXON Ohmigosh! Here it is Friday the 13th again and the little black felines are rampant all over the world. All over where they use our calendar, and all over where it’s Friday the 13th, that is. It just seems iike it would be a fine day to stay in bed, all day that is, but there’s shopping to be done, even if it is the 13th, so let’s go, and avoid all ladders, tats of the ebony variety, spilled galt, and any other witch invit- ing activities. * “Land O’ spelled “Flatbush Ave.” and Key West is a far cry from dear old Brooklyn where hot corned beef and pastrami blooms on every street corner, but this si little Corner Lun- cheonette has those same deli- cious kosher delicatessen items that would make dear old Brooklyn look to it’s laurels. Land 0’ Sundreis is where ! generally stop for breakfast on Saturday mornings, so in the tush of waffles and coffee, ! have never poked an inquiring reportorial nose in the direction ‘of Specials, Kosher dills or Sauerkraut. However it is a real nice thing to know, that should the spirit move me, | can order up a plate of Loks and eggs, and have them served up in style with buttered toast and * Now | am generally one who goes in for selling monkeys, trees, real estate, dresses, shoes and baby clothes. Never once thought of selling Sundries from and O’ when | was around, fs why | am so happy to fell you all about it now. It is a teal nice little joint on the cor- mer of Truman and Grinnell Streets. Every body seems to be there bright and early at erange jvice and coffee time, and they are open after most restaurants close. Besides that they serve breakfast, lunch and dinner platters, and have a fountain where that good Land ©’ Sun icecream is served up in. tasty looking concoctions. ‘Then there is the dairy,counter Ywhere you may go to get:that good Land 0’ Sun milk, cream, cheese, and other dairy pro- ducts, Quite.a store I'd © say. Please pass the-Pastrami, Miss. s * ® Now I am quite a one for the chowders, and Fish Chowder, Cape Cod style is something to write about! However this is not a recommended Lenten dish, as you will see. First brown off to a nice gold- en-ness, about four slices of diced salt pork. Then, into a big pot pour the salt pork, about three tablespoons of the fat of the pork, and then add four diced potatoes, one large onion cut fine, one grated carrot, strips of one half green pepper, and one large firm white meat fish, skinned, boned and shredded. Cover with enough water to simmer, salt and pepper heavily. Simmer until the veget- ables are tender. Make two cups! of thin white sauce and add to the mixture. Serve steaming hot for lunch any old time. a * rk All the cars | ever owned have somehow or other fallen heir to screwy tities, and 1 qvess most folks have pet manves for their jalopies too. Wit so far ! have been calling the pui horror belonging to Al Lubinski, only “That thing that is propelled around by the Electrolux man.” Now | have mothing at all against the name | ef “Sylvia.” tn fect it has pertically become ae favorite of | mine. Also, it seems that cars like ships should be referred te in the feminine gender. Weill, Sylvia Applionces, and the Blec- trolux man being related, so te speck, | have decided, and 1 am sure all will agree, that the Easter Egg car should be call ed “Sylvie.” Appliances is that new Appli- ance store out on Flagler Ave- nue where you can get just about amy electrical appliance thet your little heart des: and that the passionate pink car belongs te Al Lubinsky whe sells these magical Electrolux Vecuum cleaners, and whe wants te sell enough of them this month te win « trip te the Waldorf.

Well, this explorer wound lup by selling off a little parcel, jabout 150,000 acres of this land | ‘for $1.65.

They have a good chance of winning too because who has a better right to the land than the guy who found it? Anybody interested in real es- tate? es wed Wednesday night over at the Celebrity Club was both sad and entertaining. Sad because our old friend Al was leaving and entertaining because he put on one of the best shows of his career. A lot of his nds e on hand for the leave taking. Iggy Carbonell and his pretty wife Polly, Bob Pollock and his favorite dancing partner Rol- lene Jackson. The Simmons were there, you, know Willie of the Children’s Corner and Burt who selis the Key West Shrimp, along with Burt's very handsome baby brother. Lots of other Celebrities spotted and tke didn’t miss a one either. Sot it’s hail and farewell to a fine little guy and his nice old man. They teft with a Key West souvenier, a cute little one day. Last night opened a new ‘or tly new show. Jack and Jill are staying on for alittle while, and my favorite. chantoosey, Mona is going to make with the music all over the place. Just ask for it, and that gal can sing itt Let's go Mary, it’s crazy! x * Being a great beliver in the powers of advertising, would just like to mention in passing the favorite slogan of a well-known jtire truck about town, It’s “In- vite us to your next blow-out!” That I will, that I will! 2 & ® Like a field of gaily nodding flowers, the Easter dresses in the window at Children’s Cor- ner. Six lovely models, six beautiful hues, cloudy fluffy sheers cottons and nylons. Lace and ruffles and embroidery froth them all. . .almost too | beautiful for description. Noth- ing as lovely as a little girl dressed in Easter finery. Now Easter isn’t only for | girls, and Children’s | knows it. The gabardine and ny- fon and rayon slacks for boys are very smart there. So too the Mon Tog shirts in colors and checks. Little boys sizes one to three have @ gala day shead in Mon Tog’s blazer striped jacket and | plain or constrasting shorts. | Oh it's going to be a fine day on Easter. . .and have you started thinking about the Southernmost Easter Parade yet?

He told me that the flour that goes into Pepperidge Farms bread is old fashioned stone ground pure unbleached wheat products. Also, all these loaves and roils are hand kneaded in the old fashioned | way so that this bread tastes just like the crusty brown loayes that used to come out of ‘grandmom’s old wood range down on the farm. Remember? ie. I had the privilege of sitting in on a momentous planning ses- ‘sion yesterday morning, and I'd sure like to pass it along because I know everyone is going to be interested. | One little old gal, Willie Mae |Simmons started the ball rolling lin a very small plan for an Easter |Parade for the kids, When she asked me to help, I thought of ithe Chamber of Commerce and jthe splendid way they always jseem to be able to do thin, lespecially that Harold Laubsch | guy.
