Christmas In August
I’ve been thinking about
TTiristmas lately and I’m
contemplating planning a very
special Christmas “evening"
for you all this coming season
with all kinds of gift-giving
ideas, plus demonstrating a
Christmas dinner and New
Year’s Party menu It will be
"A Holiday Affair” and I
promise will be a gala occasion
I really need to know how
interested you'd be in learning
more about preparation of
holiday foods and entertaining
This will help me know how to
plan the demonstration. If you
will take the time to drop me a
card, Box 8, Point, 75472, or
give me a call at the County
Extension Office, then I will
know you are interested.
Helpful Idea

bother you? One way to
eliminate this is to spread a
