Anything approaching swampy, or even wet lands, in a climate like this, would be almost certain to breed malaria. Besides, we should be eaten alive by mosquitoes. No, I shall certainly not try rice. Other tropical productions I shall some day give a trial to. Ginger, vanilla, and other things would no doubt flourish here.
3 half inch slices of Boston Brown Bread 1 quart of cream 1/2 pound of sugar 1 teaspoonful of vanilla or 1/4 of a vanilla bean or a teaspoonful of vanilla extract Dry and toast the bread in the oven, grate or pound it, and put it through an ordinary sieve.

From MISS JOSEPHINE SHAKSPEARE, of Louisiana, Lady Manager Four strips of chocolate; one quart of milk, six eggs, one tablespoon of corn starch; sweeten to taste, and vanilla flavoring.

Astor House, New York City. One cupful of carefully sorted rice boiled in water until it is soft; when done, drain it so as to remove all the water; cool it, and add one quart of new milk, the well-beaten yolks of three eggs, three tablespoonfuls of white sugar and a little nutmeg, or flavor with lemon or vanilla; pour into a baking dish and bake about half an hour.
Yet their welcoming shout of fellowship was pleasant, despite a note of derision for my staying so long away from the fleshpots of Papeete. Pincher and McHenry were themselves lately arrived, but evidently had learned of my absence from Lovaina. "What did you do? Buy a vanilla plantation?" asked McHenry.
Stir the ingredients together in a saucepan until the sugar is dissolved and then let the mixture simmer slowly until it thickens. Use between and on top of layer cakes, or as a filling for torten. Peel and grate one large sour apple, three-quarters cup of white sugar, white of one egg; beat all together a long time, flavor with vanilla or grated rind of one-half lemon.
Corn-starch may be used instead of flour. This makes a very nice filling for plain cup cake baked on jelly-cake tins. Whites of three eggs beaten to a stiff froth; quarter of a pound of sifted powdered sugar; a few drops of vanilla. Add the sugar to the whites. Have ready a hard-wood board which fits the oven. Wet the top well with boiling water, and cover it with sheets of letter-paper.
Take yolks of two eggs, one pint of cream, eight macaroons, vanilla and flavor, one-half cup of sugar, one-half cup of milk. Beat yolks of eggs and the sugar very light. Put on milk to a boil, and when it comes to a boil stir into the beaten eggs and sugar and set away to cool. Beat cream and add macaroons, leaving just enough to put in the bottom of your form.
Line two cake pans with buttered paper and turn the cake batter in. Bake in a moderate oven about three-quarters of an hour. Three cups of white sugar and one cup of butter creamed together; one cup of sweet milk, six eggs, whites and yolks beaten separately, one teaspoonful of vanilla or lemon extract, two heaping teaspoonfuls of baking powder, sifted with four cups and a half of flour.
Boil the milk in a double boiler. Beat the eggs, and add the flour slowly, with enough of the milk to make it smooth. Stir into the boiling milk, and cook it half an hour. Eat with liquid sauce or sirup. It is often made without eggs. One quart of milk; four tablespoonfuls of corn-starch; one cup of sugar; three eggs; a teaspoonful each of salt and vanilla.
