and there haven’t been any
real complications from
using it.

Yellow crookneck squash
are already in the market
and soon they will be
abundant. Most casserole
dishes using them are
complicated, but this recipe
is very simple.
EASY SQUASH BAKE
5 small squash, cut into dices
2 tablespoons sour cream
'2. cup grated baby swiss
cheese (the flavor is milder
then the regular swiss
cheese)
'2 cup grated sharp Cheddar
cheese
Bread Crumbs
Chopped pecans
Cook squash in a small
amount of water until tender.
Drain excess water. Butter a
small casserole dish and mix
squash with sour cream and
cheeses in it. Top with a
small amount of bread
crumbs and a few chopped
pecans. Bake at 350 degrees
for 20 minutes. This would
probably serve three.
Strawberries and cream
are delicious anythime. Try
adding one tablespoon of Tia
Maria coffee liqueur to the
cream before whipping and
sprinkle the berries with
brown sugar. The flavor is
unique.

Art of Flower
Pressing To
Come to Macon
Sunny O’Neil, a lecturer
for the Smithsonian Institu
tion and a specialist in the
nearly-lost art of flower
pressing, will present a
program at Macon Junior
College on Tuesday, April 19
through the college’s Depart
ment of Continuing Educa
tion.
Almost everyone, at some
stage, attempts to press a
flower but the first long
stemmed rose usually ends
up a shriveled brown blob.
Ms. O’Neil has revived the
Victorian techniques and
created color art objects
sought by museums, gal
leries and private collectors
the world over. Her pressed
flower arrangements are
featured in the Smithsonian’s
Georgia’s largest revenue
producing industries, Spivia
explained. “Last year alone,
it generated SIOO million in
State tax dollars and provid
ed 132,000 jobs for Georgians
employed in serving the
traveling public.”
The upcoming seminar is
fifth in a series of regional
meetings scheduled through
out the State.
Representatives from all
aspects of the travel indus
try-lodging, food service,
auto service, and recreation
attractions-are encouraged
to attend. Contact Doug
Weaver, Georgia Depart
ment of Industry and Trade,
Tourist Division, P.O. Box
1776, Atlanta 30301, for
further details.

No, because it hasn’t really
been determined saccharin
causes cancer in humans.
“1876 Exhibition,” now in
progress, and her annual
workshops there are tra
ditionally sold out. She has
traveled widely in the United
State and Europe lecturing to
various organizations on the
topic.
The essence of flower
pressing, Ms. O’Neil says, is
preserving color after pres
sing, or even intensifying it,
all without additives or paint.
Her program at Macon
Junior will cover pressing
flowers, composing designs
and uses for the finished
creations, in addition to
exhibiting her own work. The
workshop will open at 9:00
a m. and continue through
2:30 p.m. with an hour break
for lunch.
The registration deadline
is April 14 and a $4.00 fee is
required. For a brochure and
registration materials, con

College of Continuing Educa
tion at 474-2700.
