Julia Childs, Betty Crocker, Mary Edgar, my mother & me A few years back it was early in the morning; it was still cool in my kitchen, thank goodness. I was to prepare a couple of pot-luck dishes for a gathering at Ide Adobe Park in the evening. Knowing that later in the day the kitchen would be much warmer, I decided to get busy on the food preparation. I pulled out mix- ing dishes, and bowls from the "Jewel Tea Company," mixed with current plastic plates and other cooking instruments. I checked the contents of the refrigerator and the pantry, as I did I began to think of the days gone by when I was in high school and was in the homemaking class of Mrs. Mary Edgar. She was definitely a "cook from scratch," teacher. At the end of our learning year she made arrangements for us to receive a Betty Crocker recipe book. I still have the red binder book from which I learned much. The red cover has faded with many recipes having various food spots on the pages. I pulled it out of the cupboard, and then added the Col- orado cook-book, "Crème de Col- orado," given to me by a preschool parent. Then I remembered Julia Child's TV show and the movie "Julie," in which she was depicted in her beginning cooking years. If she could do it, I could do it. I resisted dozens of other cook- ery guides on the shelves, the "Watkins" cookbook, "Better Homes and Gardens," the Men- nonite "More-with-Less Cook- book," and many, many more church generated recipe books. I ended up pulling out Marjorie Hacker's many hand written recipes and Grandma Elsie Storm Fields, "The Mod- ern Method of Preparing Delightful Foods." My mouth watered, my stomach growled as I perused the cook books. I decided to walk to the refrigerator and check out available food. I began to remember the foods that were asked for family gatherings. One such food was what was then referred to as "Deviled Eggs." Mother always made them for Easter, Christmas and picnics. I followed her footsteps and as a result always have at least one grown up grandchild who requests the egg dish. As I began to close the refriger- ator door I remembered the deli- cious coleslaw at the family gather- ings. Some of the slaw was great and some was not so great, coleslaw was a challenge and dif- ferent family members made a sort of contest out of whose was the best. water for the foods of times gone by and I decided to whip up a plate of "Deviled Eggs" and a bowl of "Coleslaw." By this time my mouth began to Having thumbed through all the cookbooks strewn on the kitchen table, I decided to pro- ceed with the process. The chosen dishes had the attributes of Mrs. Edgar, My Mother and yes you guessed it, I added a cou- ple of my own touches. I felt like the "make it from scratch cook," of old times. No modern pur- chasing of cheese trays and plastic covered eggs from the supper markets. Wow! It only took me a couple of hours. Carolyn Barber years in past years, so I began again to peruse the oldest cookbook on the table published in 1927. It had a page depicting the cost of food which was high in 1631. Women in those days were challenged with providing food on the table. I sat back on my lau- rels and pictured the days of old even before my time. I had noticed that husband had planted corn and tomatoes a few following quotation tells us how dedicated people of old were. "Wonderful women they must have been, those housewives of ancient days, feeding their families health- fully on little else save corn." The Carolyn Barber has been writing her column in the Daily News since 1992. It appears on Saturdays. She can be contacted by e-mail at hurcar@yahoo.com. Cowboy tells it like it is in Cottonwood Toms, along with Ginger Fowler and Ginger's father, Les Shoup, were recent guests at the Cotton- wood Community Library Summer Storytime, whose theme for this summer has been "What Will I Be When I Grow Up?" The purpose for their visit was to show the young bucka- roos in attendance what a normal day might be like for today's working cow- boy or cowgirl out on the ranch.
