Nice way to cut turnips as a rose, steam until ten- der, color any shade. Serve creamed turnips in same. A perfect calla lily can be made of a thin slice of turnip pinned together at one side with carrot center, using parsley for stem.
CAULIFLOWER.
Take off outside leaves, cover with cold water and let stand half hour. Drain, cook in boiling water in uncovered vessel until tender. Pour a well seasoned creamed dressing over it. Do not season until done. It is often cooked in cheese-cloth bag to keep it white.
Wash well, cook without peeling. It requires one hour for cooking beets. Drain and rub off skins. Slice, serve with vinegar, pepper and salt. Some prefer them with su- gar and butter.
Cook whole if pods are not too large. Cut in smaller pieces if large. Cook in boiling water (salted), for thirty minutes. Drain, season with pepper, salt and drawn butter. A little vinegar improves taste.
Okra can be dipped in batter and fried like oysters. It tastes very much like them.
There are a great many ways of preparing and serving tomatoes. The simplest way is to serve them chilled, peeled and sliced. Season with salt, pepper and vinegar, or sugar. They can be cut in halves or in sections to look like a pond lily and served with salad dressing. Pretty on lettuce leaf.
BROILED TOMATOES FOR BREAKFAST (GREEN).
Wash, wipe and cut in inch slices. Dip in meal that has been salted and pepper added. Melt some butter in spider, when hot put in slices of tomato. When brown turn and brown other side. Serve on very thin slices of toast. Nice with poached egg on each slice.
