For To-morrow.— Three pounds of Jerusalem Artichokes ; order four penny¬ worth of Cream for to-morrow. Breakfast. — Eggs on the Dish. — When there is a close stove in use, these can be easily prepared. With an open range, the oven would need to be used for it. Butter a tin or earthenware dish that will stand the fire, that can be sent to table, and that has upright sides to keep the eggs from spreading. Butter the inside, and break the eggs in carefully to preserve them unbroken. Put the dish on the top of the stove for a couple of minutes till the whites are set ; sprinkle pepper and salt over, and serve. Potted Pheasant (see Potted Grouse, January 7th) ; Sally Lunns (June 4th) ; Fried Hominy (February 12 th). Luncheon. — Cod Pie (January 2nd); Minced Mutton, made of the cold mutton left on Saturday if there were any (January 20th). Dinner. — Crotite au Pot (May 25th) ; Irish Stew, made of the best end of the neck of mutton bought on Saturday (March 10th) ; the scrag end is to be served at luncheon to-morrow. Potatoes (May 12th) ; Macaroni Pudding (March 27th); Cheese (June 8th). Things that must not be Forgotten. 1. Take one or, if necessary, two slices, the third of an inch thick, from the ham already in cut. 2. Hang the scrag end of mutton in a cool larder. 3. Make a corn-flour blancmange for dinner to-morrow (June 15th). 4. If the plum pudding and the mincemeat are to be made on Wednesday, prepare a pound and a half of currants, if there are none in the house cleaned and dried. It is a convenient plan to wash currants always as soon as they come in from the grocer. If they are washed in small quantities when wanted, they are frequently either left moist, thus making the pudding or cake heavy, or they are dried quickly before the fire, thus destroying their flavour. Wash the currants in cold water, drain them, sprinkle a little hour upon them, rub them, a few at a time, dry in a cloth, then put a small quantity at once at the mouth of a cool oven. When quite dry, turn them over, pick out any stones there may be, and put them into a jar till wanted. December 8th. Breakfast. Lunclieon. Dinner. Fried Ham.
