CC. 1950 Digitized by the Internet Archive in 2013 http://archive.org/details/songofkettleOOchri The Song of The Kettle Pink cheeked and happy, slim as a reed Susie is calling — What will I need? The crowd will come, after the game Cream and cocoa or just have the same? Father is phoning, a friend's in town Supper is ready — bread's 'bout to brown! Cream sauce to the hash, a pimento or two There's running around to get the meal thru. Now hear laughter, they're eating well Meal is hearty — the salad did jell! So I sing with joy, the whole day thru For here is a home where love is true. A. W. S. Fancy Recipes For dinner let me savor Some bright, exotic dish: Bortsch that is full of flavor, Bouillabaisse full of fish. It's "plain to see no repartee Can come of hash or stew— The true sophisticate, mais oui, Must be a gourmet, too. (But when epicures are sleeping, In the kitchen by myself I put my Brillat-Savarian Upon the highest shelf . And the only crack you'll hear Is not Moravian or Manchurian As I munch a Dagwood sandwich That is all but epicurean!) Louise Owen Now There's An Idea How very weak a fellow feels And how his innards riot, When helpmate serves him skimpy meals That fit her rigid diet. A man is short on vigor when His food is planned for slimmin', So why not men us for the men, And wo menus for women? —William W. Pratt FOREWORD We have compiled our recipes and our friends and our friends' cooks. They have all been tested and are reliable, results of practical experience in the kitchen. In fact, for the past few months we haven't given a hoot if our slip is showing; we have been proving in the kitchen that our quantities for these recipes are correct. Attics, closets, and old trunks have been searched. Some recipes were in yellow ledgers, handwritten in beautiful penmanship, and others loose in boxes. We hope we have given a true picture of what goes on in Stanly County kitchens and that each book may prove a source of pleasure. This book is dedicated to all in Stanly County who love to cook, with grateful appreciation to those who contributed their recipes. Ada W.
