I ate some rice casserole at a church dinner and it was delicious and
the lady that prepared it was not there, if there is anyone that has
one please post it, it had of course rice and mushrooms in it. Thank
you so much

Subject: Have Fun With the Children!

With the holidays upon us, we may find we have some time to entertain
our grandkids or our small children. The following is something that
my 4-year-old-granddaughter and I love to do.

PS: When you knead the hot playdough it feels great on stiff hands.

Play Dough

1 cup flour
1/2 cup salt
2 teaspoons cream of tartar
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
1 cup water
Food coloring or Wonder Colors

Mix together flour, salt and cream of tartar. Add oil, water and
coloring. Cook, stirring for 1 to 3 minutes or until thick. Knead
almost immediately. Keep in an airtight container in refrigerator.
This makes a nice, soft play dough and will last up to a year.

Glitter Play Dough

1 cup flour
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
1 cup water
1/2 cup salt
2 teaspoons cream of tartar
Food coloring
Glitter

Mix all ingredients except glitter. Mix all ingredients in a saucepan
and heat, stirring constantly, until it forms a ball. Remove from pot,
add glitter and knead until smooth. Glitter play dough will be good
for several weeks stored in a tightly sealed container at room
temperature. Do not refrigerate.

(it's not as difficult as you think!)

2 cups sugar
1/2 cup water
1/2 cup white corn syrup
1 egg white stiffly beaten
1 teaspoon vanilla
1/2 cup broken nut meats (optional)
Pinch of salt
Food coloring (optional)

Beat the egg white in a large bowl and set aside. In a saucepan, boil
the sugar, water and syrup while stirring gently. The mixture is done
at 235 degrees or if it forms a soft ball when a tablespoon full is
dropped into cold water. Pour the mixture over the beaten egg white,
beating continually. Add vanilla, nuts and a pinch of salt. Add a
few drops of red or green food coloring if desired. Beat this mixture
until it is almost hard, then drop by the teaspoonful onto waxed
paper.

Makes about 35 - 40 pieces.
