The salad is made by scalding a pint of scallops, draining them and

serving on lettuce with a sprinkling of chopped parsley and a French

dressing. The mince-pies may be omitted if they seem too heavy for

luncheon, but if you fancy this reminder of a real Thanksgiving meal,

have them made in small round tins about four inches across, and have

the pie-crust as delicate as possible. The hot sauce to serve with the

ice cream is made by boiling a pint of water with half a pint of sugar

until it hardens in water, and then adding two tablespoonfuls of grated

chocolate dissolved in three tablespoonfuls of boiling water, and

boiling again until it crisps in water; add vanilla and serve at once.

In the place of both the pie and this cream, you may have a sort of

combination of both, which might be called mince-pie ice cream, made by

adding chopped raisins, spice, and a dash of wine to a rich chocolate

ice cream; the slices look and taste like fruit cake, and served with

whipped cream are delicious.
