Prepared Mixes
. Another helpful item for business women in the U.S.A. is the number of "prepared mixes" to be bought — such as griddle cake mix, scone or "biscuit" mix-which have only to be mixed with ‘water or milk and popped into oves or steamer. For instance, at~a beach picnic in Darien, Connecticut, one Sunday, the charming and servant-less host‘ess just disappeared for half-an-hour into her adjacent home, mixed up a packaged "biscuit," adding a cupful of blueberries which she had picked that morning and brought back a _ pretty wicker basketful of hot blueberry scones-which were greatly enjoyed. No measuring or even guessing to do, just empty the package into a bowl, add the blueberries and some* liquid, and there you are! Probably vegetable shortening is,used, because it never goes rancid. : Of course we already have some prepared mixes in New Zealand — pastry and puddings; ask your grocer about these..In the U.S.A. too, can be bought
, fancy sandwich-breads in tins-date and nut, prune and nut, chocolate and nut, etc., all ready to slice as they come from the can. A supply of such tins in the pantry of a-business woman is a great help in getting a meal in a hurry when she has had no chance to go shopping.
