While the last icing is wet, ornament it with coloured sugar-sand or nonpareils. One pound of flour sifted. One pound of fresh butter. One pound of powdered white sugar. Twelve eggs. Two pounds of the best raisins. Two pounds of currants. Two table-spoonfuls of mixed spice, mace and cinnamon. Two nutmegs powdered. Half a glass of rose-water / A pound of citron.
They pierce into woodland dells, where they by chance discover renowned princesses, nonpareils of beauty, in imminent danger, and release them. They attack hordes of deadly pirates, and scatter their bodies along the shore; and yet, for all their warlike fire and force, they are as gentle as marmozets in a lady's boudoir.
A very small quantity of this mixture will colour icing of a beautiful pink. With pink icing, white nonpareils should be used. Put half a pound of rice in soak over night. Early in the morning boil it very soft, drain it from the water, mix with it a quarter of a pound of butter, and set it away to cool. When it is cold, stir it into a quart of milk, and add a very little salt.
The sky, so far as he could see it, was cloudless, the crisp leaves of a tall palm close at hand rustled in a light breeze like the patter of rain, gayly plumaged paroquets and nonpareils flitted across his line of vision, and the air was filled with the pleasant odor of burning wood, mingled with the fragrance of a cigarette that Dionysio smoked while squatted on his heels before a small fire.
I remember the waiting at the door not that which is left but between that and an inner door in shelter O when shall I be such an expectant again! with the cry of nonpareils, an indispensable play-house accompaniment in those days.
Cherries are an early fruit, you may have them; and you may have the early apples and pears. BOSWELL. 'We cannot have nonpareils. JOHNSON. 'Sir, you can no more have nonpareils than you can have grapes. BOSWELL. 'We have them, Sir; but they are very bad. JOHNSON. 'Nay, Sir, never try to have a thing merely to shew that you CANNOT have it.
