I like a nice piece of steak and fried potatoes and some griddle-cakes and maple-surrup, and if you got any nice sawsitch and the wife usually likes some oatmeal, and she takes tea and toast, but bring me some hot bread. And the girl What you want, Kedzie? The same's I'm takin'? All right. Oh, some grape-fruit, eh? She wants grape-fruit. Got any good? All right.
Potato-cakes, to be served with roast lamb or with game, are made of equal quantities of mashed potatoes and of flour, say one quart of each, two tablespoonfuls of butter, a little salt and milk enough to make a batter as for griddle-cakes; to this allow half a teacupful of fresh yeast; let it rise till it is light and bubbles of air form; then dissolve half a teaspoonful of soda in a spoonful of warm water and add to the batter; bake in muffin tins.
The cabin was about fourteen feet square. The family had crowded into one bed, part of the surveyors occupied the other, and the rest were on the floor. We had not eaten a bite since morning. The cooking stove was in a little, cold, floorless shed, and there mother baked some corn griddle-cakes for our supper.
Then numberless varieties of bread can be selected, in form of rolls, fritters, muffins, waffles, corn-cakes, griddle-cakes, etc., etc. For beverages, coffee, chocolate and cocoa, or tea if one prefers it; these are all suitable for the breakfast table. When obtainable always have a vase of choice flowers on the breakfast table; also some fresh fruit, if convenient.
"Great Scott! d'ye hear that?" said Si through his chattering teeth. "Yes, and there's somethin' comin' over this way," replied Shorty. A shell came screaming and swishing through the air. The young Hoosiers curled around the roots of that stump and flattened themselves out like a pair of griddle-cakes.
They needed no forage for their animals save the grass beneath their feet, no food for themselves except the cattle which they seized, and whose flesh they boiled in their hides. Failing these, each man had a bag of oatmeal, and a plate of metal on which he could bake his griddle-cakes.
"Nothing of the sort, Miss Peggy," exclaimed Jack. "It's hardly half an hour." "Half an hour is bad enough. We all overslept. If you'd like, you may hurry things by setting the table, while I mix the griddle-cakes." Graham smacked his lips. "Maple sirup?" he asked insinuatingly, and at Peggy's nod, he indulged in frantic demonstrations of delight. Jack looked at him disapprovingly.
My last strawberry remained poised in mid-air. It was quite apparent to me now that there was nothing funny about this situation. "Milk, milk!" whimpered Diogenes, pulling at Silvia's dress and making frantic efforts to reach the cream pitcher. Huldah had come in with the griddle-cakes during this avalanche of news.
Given, a large house, music, piazzas, beaches, cliff, port, griddle-cakes, fast horses, sherry-cobblers, ten-pins, dust, artificial flowers, innocence, worn-out hearts, loveliness, black-legs, bank-bills, small men, large coat-sleeves, little boots, jewelry, and polka-redowas ad libitum, to produce August in Newport. For my part, Miss Minerva, I like it. But it is a dizzy and perilous game.
Jane discussed it with her father and mother; and Rosy handled it, and Roger; and Alice came in from Riverdale Park to stay overnight, and to contend with Jane and Rosy through the steak and the griddle-cakes in the morning, as well as to intimate to her father that if he would build out a little library from her parlor, her husband could pay for the carpet and furniture; and Aunt Lydia Rhodes came now and then and fluttered around the question, unsettling points that had been looked on as settled for good and all, and raising other points of her own that needed no consideration whatever.
