Fall, frost and food The beautiful fall colors of green, orange, yellow and red have kept me mesmerized. The entry of weather change has contributed beautiful colors, both warm and cool days. I covered my tender bushes and plants to prepare them for the cold nights to come. It is on days like this that I long for the mountain climes with deep fall col- ors and crisp clean air, cool but sunny breezes that calm the soul and disallow any thoughts of winter snow or sweltering hot summers. The urge to bake cookies or roast meat come into mind, the thought of enticing aromas wafting through the house while one settles by the window to read a book is strong. The reality is that we cannot always choose where we want to be. What we can do is take a few minutes of respite to revel in our internal visions of such places. As we approach Thanksgiving Day we begin to whip up some traditional batches of pies, pumpkin bread, turkey or ham. All kinds of delec- table foods come to mind. Our mouths begin to water at the thought. Speaking of food not only is November the Thanksgiving month, it is National Peanut Butter Month; one company has listed it as the month of November and anoth- er one listed it as the month of March. I wonder who decides the food months. You know the calen- dars that keep us from being bored by providing information on what and who are to be honored each day of the month? In fact, the very day I am typing this copy, I see that we are to remember that Daniel Boone was born on Nov. 2, 1734 He was known to be responsible for the exploration and settlement of Ken- tucky. He was definitely a travel’n man as the country western song states. He hit the Yadkin Valley in North Carolina, a trek that took over a year. He went on a military expedition in the French and Indian War at age 19 or 20. Since my stomach is growling as I think of the coming Thanksgiv- ing feast, I am wondering just what kind of sand- wiches Mrs. Boone made for Daniel while they were on their numerous travels. Perhaps that is why the "Earl of Sandwich" started all this sandwich business a little later in history as he probably remembered that Boone had hardtack and scrapple in his travel pack. I believe the most unique sandwich I ever had was one introduced to me by a dear high school friend. This fantastic friend once took me home with her for lunch one day and made me a dill pickle, peanut butter, mayonnaise sand- wich. I stared at it for a couple of minutes, not wanting to offend her. I cautiously bit into the lunch offer- ing. To my surprise, I liked it and to my husband’s surprise years later I was still eating one every once in a while. I only throw in this peanut butter sandwich to appease those calendar makers who insist that November is the real "peanut butter" month. Readers will have had their fill of turkey by the time this hits the press. It usually happens that we have a few leftovers after the Thanksgiving holiday so I offer the following recipe. 3 Rhodes Texas frozen rolls (thawed) 1 egg, beaten, butter if desired 2 lettuce leaves 6 oz. sliced turkey 1 1/2 cups cranberry sauce. Cut one roll in half and roll one of the pieces into a 10 inch rope. Cut the rope into four segments for the laces. Set aside. Press remaining 2 1/2 rolls into a football shape leav- ing the top mounded. Pull the ends to exaggerate the point. Place on a baking sheet sprayed with non-stick Carolyn Barber cooking spray. With a knife, make a light cut across the top of the foot- ball not quite reaching the points. Lay each lace across the cut. Using a toothpick or knife, push the end of the laces down into the foot- ball securing them tight- ly. Brush with egg and let rise for 30 minutes. Bake at 350 degrees for 20 minutes or until golden brown. Let cool and then slice. Spread with butter, stuff with lettuce, turkey, and cranberry sauce or your favorite fixings. This makes one large football sandwich. Since the object of many calen- dars is to proclaim November as sandwich month, I suspect that this recipe is a ploy to keep Mom in the kitchen while the family watches the football game. An alternative might be for Mom to just set out the peanut butter jar, the dill pickles and the mayo and let everyone spread their own, they could even experiment and add lettuce, turkey and cranberry sauce. It would still carry a football theme as peanuts do look like miniature footballs that later get squished into peanut butter. If anyone wants to pursue the peanut butter month controversy, go to the web site, PanutBut- terLovers.com where the real facts concerning National Peanut Butter Month can be found. Can anyone tell me how many pounds of peanuts Americans eat each year? I can see it is time to close this column. Hubby has just entered my office with a plate of pecan pie and some ice cream accompanied by an aromatic cup of coffee for me. Yummy.

The Tehama County Department of Education Special Schools and Pro- grams teachers in collabora- tion with the Department held a canned food drive during November. Boxes full of canned food items were collected to be donated to the Red Bluff Salvation Army’s food bank. After hearing the food bank was out of food, the teachers in the Special Schools and Programs office stepped into action by posting flyers and setting out donation boxes. Donation locations included the Maywood Itin- erant Preschool in Corning, the Berrendos Itinerant office, and the Tehama County Department of Edu- cation. On Nov. 19, the boxes were loaded onto a school bus and delivered to the Sal- vation Army on Walnut Street in hopes of making this Thanksgiving plentiful for those in need. Heidi Schueller, assis- tant superintendent of Special Schools and Pro- grams, commended the teachers for coordinating and collaborating with Unique Holiday Gifts Nature Photography by Cuco Oropeza Prints 11x14 - $20 16x20 - $30 Gold Exchange 530 528-8000 423 Walnut St. Red Bluff the department and reaching out to the com- munity during these tough times.
