Hints On Leftovers No matter how well one plans, there are bound to be occasional leftovers. Food is too expensive to waste, so a few hints on using those leftovers wisely are in order. One or two leftover vegetables added to thin or medium white sauce will make a good luncheon soup They may be left as they were first served, such as cut-up or whole, or one may want to puree them in a food processor or blender. For instance, asparagus can be pureed, but com kernels and cut green beans should be left as they were. Some leftovers need a bit of extra seasoning to make them palatable. Mashed potatoes, for example, taste better if some grated onion is added to them and then formed into patties and sauteed in butter to brown them lightly. The use of leftovers should be limited the second time around, and one new food can be added so the dish is different. When using leftover roast, vegetables and gravy in a meat pie, a cheese biscuit crust can be added, for an example. Yesterday's cake, sponge, angel food or butter, can De cut into strips to line a dessert dish. It can be covered with a soft-cooked custard sauce and topped with whipped cream, fruit and-or preserves. THOUGHT FOR FOOD*. His n' HAIR NICHE Come in and Relax with us after the Holiday rush!

Loneliness may tend to prolong grief and, to gether, they are detrimental to both happiness and health. Grief and misery stun the ap petite and one tends to forget that proper diet, no less proper exercise, is essential keeping the body processes alive and well. Diet and exercise are complimentary, as well as nec essary. They work well together. This truth is ignored by some who give in to misery or just sit around doing nothing be cause they don't want to go through the bother of preparing a meal or taking a walk around the block. It is wise to remember that what we eat -- or do not eat -- can affect the way we feel. Like wise, we will get "rusty" if we sit around and do nothing... "rusty", physically and men tally. Jogging and walking are rec ommended, depending upon age and physical condition T There is certain to be some sense of exhilaration, some sense of revival, to be found in the cool morning air or the glimpse of a friendly face. There should be, in the simple matter of culi nary experimentation, a tinge of anticipation and, sometimes, a feeling of accomplishment. The bottom line is simply that one alone, for whatever reason, for whatever period of time, must be up and doing, not merely sitting and rusting. The bonus comes with the dis covery that the alternative to loneliness is to get up and go. Once up and once going, one is never again always alone. Recognizing this, it must be acknowledged that we should always take care of ourselves. It makes so little sense to allow loneliness or laziness to take away even a small bit of joy from the process of living to a ripe old age. - V* cup butter, softened • Vi cup grated Parmesan cheese Vi cup ohopped celery 1 teaspoon thyme, crumbled y* teaspoon salt Drain salmon.

My brother is in a very demanding profession and works a lot of extra hours. I don't know what his home life is like; he is married and has a ""son. Whenever I visit his home, evenings and even week ends, he is still at work. His wife says he enjoys his work, and although she resents all the time he is gone, she tries not to nag him about the hours. Is all this working harmful? Sis of Work Crazed an effort to gain security or approval, usually ends up ac complishing little. Unless your brother or sister- in-law seem unhappy with their particular situation, I would assume that his work habits are under control, and he is accomplishing a lot with his job. The c lass ic sh i r twais t dress in pure silk with ele gant detail is shown in bril liant colors and is designed for daytime and beyond. Dear Sis: Of course a person has to have some leisure time or it could be harmful to their health. Some rest and relaxation is required to keep your body from becoming nervous and ex hausted. The reason behind . you^b^wS[ln?80 rauch CONSUMER V CHECKLIST couia be a big help in answer ing your question. If he enjoys his work as your sister-in-law says, then he is motivated by a desire for growth and accom plishment and this is good. If this is the case, when done to the extreme, it can begin affect ing his home life, if he doesn't take time out to enjoy his fam ily. Some people become worka holics though, and are moti vated by feelings of inadequacy or because they are deprived of love or approval.
