SOL WAY by Larry Solway 1 realize how 1 keep putting off the finishing touches to my assauIlt on1 the Couniterfeit Downtown, or How 1 Learn- ed to Live In My Car and Like It. 1 also hiesitate about miaking any comment on1 our iew Minister of Defence, a cross between Dr. Strangelove and Gieneral Westmnoreland. Enough. 'Tis the Season--and ail that. 1 cannot, I just plain cannot be un-jolly. One of the mysteries of mny own life is that 1 buy mnv favourite peanut butter at Cornish's store in Orono. I could go into any Red and White or Loblaws'and buy it. It'sý No-Name Crunchy, and it is the best. Period. No discussion. Well, maybe some other time we'Il com- pare peanut butter preferences. But from me you expect Absolute Truth. 1 have spoken. Anvyway, there I am stan- ding in line at the Red and White in Orono. (I just said that to create the impression that it is jammed with shop- pers.) I am buying my "fix" in the yellow plastic canister with the black writing. 1 am reluctant te do publicly what mny partner (Nuala FitzGerald of course) refers to as "disguisting". It is dipping my finger into it and licking my finger. Doesn't everyone., I am also very gregalj9ouI will start a convers5atkmn with a perfect _etra1ger. I will discuss pofftics or peanut but- ter with equal zest. 1 suggest to this perfect stranger that paut butter is a very Tecial elixir. She tells me her family likes it too. Says somthing about peanut butter and jam. How pedestrian! I say nothing. She goes on: "Peanut butter with inayonaisse?" 1 am warming_ to the subject. 1 sally back: "Peanut 'Butter with Sand- wich Spread." Samne as mayonaisse but with bit of nondescript green and red things. Pickle and pimiento I suspect. 1 could have stood there aIl day comparing what I cal"kid stuff- recipes. This epic is going somewhere. Be patient. 1 pro- mîsed a Holiday Season relief fromn anger and criticismn and biting social comment. How about a few random recipes tomn from the secret heart of a lover of, not only peanut butter, but "street foods" and "Quick gummy snacks" - but not be confused, with "junk" food which lias no value and very little taste. Like those yellowý-coloured pieces of styrofoam -that are fried ail puffy and taste vaguely like cheese. Recipe: Peanut Butter Tango (like the name?) Ingredients One tablespoon of Peanut butter Two pieces of Black Bread One Spanish onion (Ber muda can be substituted) Method: On to one piece of the black bread spread the peanut but- ter evenly so that the entire surface is covered. Add one thin slîce of onion. NOTE: Save the rest of the bread for "'seconds" and the onion for next t;inie. BlacK brecad is used because factory style white bread which (as italians would say) is eaten only iy Mangia-Cakes. White bread sags. Black bread stays firm -like plywood. The amnount of peanut butter used should neyer be heavy, as in those disgusting TV commerciais vvith the kid O-D'mng on Skip- py. The onion serves flot only to- add a "tang" (hence the name Tango) but it also reduced the stick-to-the-roof- of-the-mouth tendency of good peanut butter. Variations on above. Peanut Butter de la Maison. Same as above except anything you have around the_ house mnay be substituted, e.g. Sandwich spread, bananas (an old favorite), ap-, pie sices (works like onion without the tears) or - are you ready - Spoon Size Shredded Wheat, or if you're stuck Grape Nuts. SPECIAL NOTE: The real peanutbut- ter afficionados use no but- ter. Thiat is for amateurs, Recipe: Georgia Cheese Cake Ingredients Graham crackers, butter, sugar, cream, peanut butter, eggs. It will become clear to any cook that as you read this you will realize it is the recipe for cheesecake, except that instead of usipg creamied cheese, peanut butter is substituted. Hence the use of "Georgia" a state famous for its goobers. Method: Crush the grahiam crac ker crumnbs and blend with sugar to taste. Add enougli cold butter (creamied) to make the substance workable. Pack into the bot- tom of a buttered casserole dish. Blend the peanut butter with enough creamn to mnake it smnooth but not runny, add two egg yolks to make it firm. Bake the crusted casserole dish in a moderate to higli over long enough te miake it firm. Remove. Cool. Spread in peanut butter mixture. Refrigerate. Reserve thre egg whites for something else. (Most homes have bowls filI- ed with egg white and unless you make souffles or mer- ingues, yout don't know what to do with them.) EDITOR'S NOTE: This recipe exists only on paper. t lias neyer every been tried or tested. Mr. Solway hias assured us that he wiIl try it soon and pass on the results. Readers are invited to try it out at their own risk. If you have enjoyed these remindlers that I amn not only human but loveable, please let this paper know,. 1 am prepared to share more of my kitchen fantasies, somne of which have proven success. in future coluns you mnay read: My own special pani- cakes, made for and served exclusively by the Marigold Dinner Playhouse as an ap- petizer before dinner; an in- teresting and delectable varia- tion on the famtous "Bubble and Squeak" beloved of millions of Brits; a wonder- fully inexpensive sauteed dish (quick and cheap) made withi chicken livers and vaguely resembling the gastronornic treat served by better Itafian restaurants called "Spagetti Caruso," a recipe which is flot. my favourîte but demands inclusion in a eclec- tic columrn about deviant foods - Nuala's Potato Cakes. 1 promised nïo controýversy. If 1 were Santa Claus 1 would promise more. For whatever reason, to whatever need, an accouint of whatever belief, in search. of whatever Truth y1our , 1oul.Ding-Dog Co-op program kéeps pace with change Don Dawson, principal at the Clarke Higli School in a recent release points out that the Co-operative Education program at Clarke High School has evolved in resp- ponse to the times. The principal notes that the~ Clarkce teacliing staff of Mrs. Nichols, Mr. Lowry, Mr. Vickery, Miss McCaw and Mrs. MacKenzie are al certified in co-operative education. These teachers at Clarke have ail completed or are' fînishing upgrading courses with the- Ministry of Education. Mrs. Nichols is working with the Ministry of Educa- tion writing team which is developing a Resource Guide for co-operative education in the Province of Ontario. The principal notes that the new World of work course is now half-way finish- ed. In this co-op education course students are involved in three different work sib tiens during the semester and must also complete an in- sehool comportent devoted to ail aspects of work skills, ini- terview skills and career ex- ploration. Clarke has added a new ad- dition to the programn under the name of 'job shadowing'. This involves students from the Pines Senior Public School in grade eiglit. The aimns of the programn vary from helping the grade 8 students clarify their educa- tional options and career alternatives to assisting Clarke students in expand ing their knowledge and understanding ef themselves. Don Dawson, principal at Clarke, states he lias been out in the community with the Clarke teachers monitoring the progress of the students at the various training stations. He states with each visit lie is reinforced about'tihe fun- daxuental worhtiness of the whole concept of ce- operative education. Interest in Courtice development mounts The General Purpose comn- mittee of the Town of Newcastle took a number of steps on Monday towards planned development in the Courtice area which follows some of the direction presented to council through public meetings and through development requests. Counicil members were receptive to the proposed amendments which wilI affect such as buffering between different density areas as well as bringîng forward pro - posais which had been placed in a deferred category. Some of the moves also changed density requiremnents on cer- tain lands. Council members in general were supportive of the moves suggested through the Planning Department. Mayor Rickard stated that through development in the area the whole area affected by the changes wouid be cleaned up and lie further stated that he was pleased to see how the matter was dealt with. Counc, Hamre said she was pleased as well as through communication bet- ween the various groups mDany matters had been settl- ed to the satisfaction of ail. She sald it did prove that the Town does listen. In many of the cases handl- ed on Mondlay further work has to be undertaken before developmèent wouid proceed on the affected lands.
