POLISH PYROGY Everyone enjoys this dish. It’s one I could eat every day.

HOW TO REMOVE WINE FROM ARTICLES: Salt is the best ingredient to be found in the kitchen to remove or the like, from tablecloths or carpets. Pour on the discoloured spot of wine stain to thoroughly cover and imbibe all the liquor, then repeat if necessary, after brushing off all the salt first saturated. In this manner the cloth or carpet will be restored to its new condition.

To Remove Stain From Cloth.

Tartaric acid, or salt of lemons, will quickly remove stains from white muslin or linen. Put less then half a teaspoonful of salt or acid into a teaspoonful of water; wet the stain with it, and lay it in the sun for an hour; wet it once or twice with cold water during the time; if this does not quite remove it, repeat the acid water, and lay it in the sun.

STAINLESS STEEL AND CHROME:

Good for pots, sinks, and stove tops. Rub the area to be cleaned with a damp cloth and baking soda. Baking soda is an excellent general cleaner for removing many stubborn stains, including tea stains, and can be safely used on stainless steel, chrome, and ceramic.

Squeaky Clean
Germs and kitchen are like a married couple, always close by.
Germs really love the kitchen, especially sponges, dishcloths and
sinks. You can disinfect all three by soaking sponges, and
dishcloths for 5-10 minutes in the sink in a solution of ¾ cup
Clorox Regular Bleach and one gallon of water. Rinse with clean
water and let dry.

CHRISTMAS INFORMATION

The word Christmas comes from the words Cristes maesse, or “Christ’s Mass.” Christmas is the celebration of the birth of Jesus for members of the Christian religion.

Many of our Christmas traditions were celebrated centuries before the Christ child was born. The 12 days of Christmas, the bright fires, the Yule log, the giving of gifts, carollers’ who sing while going from house to house, the feasts, and the church processions can all be traced back 4000 years.

In 350 AD Julius1, a Bishop in Rome chooses December 25th, as the
observation of Christmas.

Both Australia’s and New Zealand, Christmas occurs during summer and is celebrated at the beach.

Christmas celebration was outlawed in Boston from 1659 to 1681, however residents of Virginia and New York celebrated the Christmas holiday freely.

Christmas was declared a U.S. federal holiday in 1870.

Many public buildings once commonly included Nativity scenes.  By doing so the practice led to lawsuits, claiming the government was endorsing a religion.

In 1984 the U.S. Supreme Court ruled a city-owned Christmas display, including a Nativity scene did not violate the First Amendment.
