SOCIETY — PERSONALS — NEWS OF DOROTHY RAYMER, Society Editor THE KEY WEST CITIZEN SHOP HOPPING Where do the weeks go? Mon- day again, and the old cycle, wash- ing, ironing, mending, cooking, housecleaning, and for me Shop! Hopping starts all over agin. I see that the first electric rail- road was begun in 1851 and it makes me wonder why they ever bothered after that with coal and| oil burners. A date I'd like to see go down for. all time is April 16th when our President made a speech directed at the Russkies that could go down for all time with the great speech- | es of great Americans. We'll quote @ bit later on when we're well on our way with the shops. x kk If you have one little bit of in- ventiveness in your bones, you will be tickled silly by all the things you can buy for the mak- ings of bags at the little shop at’ Southernmost Flowers and Gifts. There are bag bottoms, bag sides, and bag tops there in _ every size, shape and color ima- " gineable. When you get them ajl assembied the price is amazing- ly small and they are easy and quick to make. Also, important news: The workshop has the liquid Rug- back, . .an antiskid backing te put on rugs and carpets. When | was in Southernmost - Flowers and Gifts, Mrs. Van was building a wedding bouquet. One feature of her flower ar- rangements are the delicate sa- tin leaves, her own innovation, These bouquets are designed to fit any pocket, and designed at the same time with great beau- ty. uae. Ee 3 My family has two favorite sand- wich recipes without which a pic- nic isn’t a pienic, One calls for a half pound of velvetta cheese sof- toned and mashed with about three. tablespoons: mayonaise. Grate one medium sizes onion, and chop very fine one half green or red pepper, Stir in the cheese mixture and butter up! For the other, you'll need -a/ pound of big baloney ground fine. | Three large tablespoons © mayon- | Raise, one medium onion grated and a half of a large cucumber | cubed real fine. Mix and spread. | Neither recipe really requires let- fuce in the sandwich, which makes for better staying qualities if the | day is very warm. ** * When a place selling food ad- vertises horses. . .well! In this _ €a8e, the good advice of the Sigs- bee Snackery is for transporta- ‘tion purposes only. The boys out there feel that if you don‘t have a eross of iron.

There are le to be quite a few of these attractive Denni- son towels hanging around vari- ous Key West towel racks this summer, because the Betty Ann Stationers is well stocked with them, and they sure are ‘the answer to many laundry pro- blems, come hot weather or cool. There are other Dennison pa- Per products at Betty Ann’s too such tractive napkins and cocktail napkins, and more and more Dennison products expect- ed any day.

Get your’s at Key West's newest stationers on Fleming Street. i RLe. eR One thing the Russians have taught us in cookery, and which they probably never can get any- more is the use of sour cream. It goes well with chicken and just as well with veal. Wipe a three pound shoulder of veal with a damp cloth and either pressure cook or simmer until ten- der, salted to taste. Cut the meat into one and one half inch cubes. Wash one half pound mushrooms and cut in half. Saute one half cup chopped celery, one half cup chopped onions and the mush- rooms is one fourth cup butter or margarine until light brown. Set aside. Mix two tablespoons flour with two tablespoons water to make a paste. Add to two cups of veal broth with one teaspoon salt and a dash of pepper. Cook and stir un- til thickened. Place meat, sauteed vegetable and gravy in one and one half quart casserole. Bake in| oe.
