The Cook’s Nook
By Mildred E. Warren
This seems to be the summer that
all my friends “a traveling go” . . .
Some are in Europe, a group leaves
for Hawaii this week, and so it goes.
One traveler who recently lived
near Houston Lake, Margaret McGow
an, returned from a trip to Mexico
and Denver, Colorado, where she spent
several months. Margaret dropped in
my shop to chat a few minutes, and
gave me a recipe which she “picked
up” in Mexico. This is a Chocolate
Cheese Cake; she says it is marvelous,
here it is for you to try. I know it
will be welcomed by the gals who are
looking for something new to serve.
Margaret told me that she was oft
ogam July 1. This sounds like a story
book jaunt. First she will spend two
weeks at Cozumel (an island off the
Yucatan. Mexico). A friend will join
her for this trip. Then she plans to
take a lengthy journey; she will travel
through Central America, on to South
America, and then continue her jaunt
around the world. Doesn’t this sound
fantastic? Margaret is a gal who likes
to go places, and I’m sure that th.s
trip will be wonderful! Bon Voyage
Margaret, have fun. We are looking
Nirward to hearing about your Od
essey.
The other recipe is a pickle which
is a bit unusual in the pickle line.
This is a Squash Pickle, and is made
with our yellow squash. I made some,
let me tell you. they are simply
delicious! Some of the best pickles I’ve
tasted, grand to serve with vegetables.
This is your answer to all those squash
that you don’t know “what to do with.”
Ton will be surprised when you taste
this one.
