All communications for this page

Agnes Watson Lee, Thomson, Ga.
NOT TOO BUSY TO WRITE TO THE
PAGE.
Dear Mrs. Lee: 1' expect the sis
ters are all like me; busy, busy, busy.
But we must not let our Page lan
guish for want of letters.
I have tried all the recipes that
were sent to me, and like them fine.
We have enjoyed our beefsteak much,
and every time one of the grand
children comes in, he want's to know
if I have got any of those, ginger
cakes cooked. I would like very
much to give something in return,
but I know’ so little, and I never can
originate anything. There are a few
little things I have read and tried,
that I will pass in.
Much has been said about custards,
but one important item has not been
mentioned. All custards should be
cooked very slowdy, to be just right.
My men folks (I believe all the wo
men cook for their men folks) like
plate pies but will not eat pan-pies
with dumplings, hey will highly rel
ish pies of canned peaches, if baked
in plates, slowly, with a very thin
crust; when if I bake a peach pie in
a pan, I generally have to throw it
away. They also like ginger snaps,
made from this recipe: two cups of
syrup, one-half cup of lard, one ta
blespoon heaping full of ginger, and
one tablespoon heaping full of
soda.
