Pampered feel and legs lift the spirits SUPPLEMENT TO McHENRY PLAINDEALER - PAGE 23 -FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 3, 1978 Creative combination of fact and fantasy Holiday foot and log care produces pampered, pain- free. pretty feet and legs. The newest shoe styles --high heels, strippy sandals, see- through vinyl--emphasize the need for extra attention. Smashing feet should look good as well as feel good. Looking good means prop­ erly cut nails, trimmed cuti­ cles. smooth heels and toes. Your feet deserve special at­ tention at least once a week more often if you wear colored nail polish. Begin a pedicure by soak­ ing your feet in warm, soapy water. Gently push cuticles back, using an orange stick wrapped in cotton. Use a pumice stone on rough spots (on the soles, too). Dry care­ fully and apply a lavish coat­ ing of moisturizer all over. Nails should be cut straight across File rough edges (on the underside, also), ( lip, tough nails, then file. You can stop here, but smashing feet look especially nice with a bit of color. So twist a piece of t issue into a roll .and twine it in and around toes (to keep them from touching and smearing the polish). Wipe nails with polish re­ mover to get off all traces of moisturizer. Apply two coals of polish, allowing the first coat to dry for 3 minutes. Seal with a top coat And do remember to repair polish whenever it chips. Get your feet feeling as smashing as the> look with a few simple exercises. Pick up a pencil with your toes. When you're sit t ing, rotate ankles and point and unpoint feet lake 10 steps walking on the outside of your foot, another 10 walking on the inner edge.

One good choice would be quiche (cheese. Lorraine, spinach or any of the many other varieties so popular nowadays) If you opt to m a k e y o u r c r u s t f r o m scratch, you can do it up to one month in advance and freeze it for later use; other­ wise, a store-bought crust provides a viable and time- saving alternative One novel dish which is perfectly suited to a buffet is ' •Pissaladiere," a French variation on pizza: pie crust fi l led with a scrumptious mixture of tomatoes, olives and herbs. Lasagna is always a good choice, as is moussaka. a Greek casserole of cheese, meat, eggplant and potatoes. Both are appetizing, fil l ing and perfectly suited to ad­ vance preparation and help- yourself style serving. busy day. before going out to gala festivities, try something as simple as elevating your legs.
