The United Slates Department De-partment of Agriculture has a few suggestions to make that may help you. To betiin with, you can't do entirely en-tirely without sandwiches, for they are the most convenient method of obtaining several substantial foods in a small space, and they are easy for the children to handle without tableware. But you can make sand wiches of different kinds of bread ! Krulmni, rye, raisin, nut, date, prune, or fig bread and breads made from cooked cereals with combinations of dried fruit and nuts. Then there are the iiuick breads rolls, biscuits, corn bread, muffins, which are not necessarily served hot, although wc, are apt to prefer them that way. Once in a while use one of these different dif-ferent breads, either for sandwiches, or without filling so they do not seem like the same old thing. Save all the little Jars that have tight lids i -peanut butter and salad dressing jars, and jelly glasses. Fill these j jars with such favorite foods as honey or preserves, apple sauce, stewed fruits, cottage cheese, or anything that can not be spread in the ordinary way. |
