Roughing it Students learned to cook outdoors We've had a really different year this year, said Mrs. Sarah Gomez, foods teacher. The foods class fixed all of the food needed for an outdoor meal. They learned how to cook with foil, a port-stove and buddy burners. Then they went to a nearby park to try their hand at cooking in the rough, The menus consisted of different main dishes such as Hobo dinner, pizza made with English muffins and stuffed peppers. One dessert they made was baked bananas. Coach John Pafford offered to demonstrate his culinary skills to one class. He prepared stuffed mushrooms and wild rice. It really was nice for him to offer to show the class, said Mrs. Gomez. Home Management classes experimented to see what the minimum was that it would take to get started living alone. They got prices from local retailers on the the basic necessities in furniture and foods basics. In clothing lab the girls were able to make a garment of their choice, and I really think they enjoyed it, said Mrs. Billie Som- mermeyer. We also made tote bags and house shoes for the people in the nursing home. Members of Home Economics Career Education work a half a day and go to school half a day.
