Recipe For Preserving A Husband

(from St. Paul Lutheran Church's "Our Favorite Recipes, Volume III", Edna, Texas)

Be careful of your selection. Do not choose too young. When once selected, give your entire thought to preparation for domestic use. Some insist on keeping them in a pickle; others are constantly getting them in hot water. This makes them sour, hard, and sometimes bitter. Even poor varieties may be made sweet, tender, and good by garnishing them with patience, well-sweetened with love and seasoned with kisses. Wrap them in a mantle of charity. Keep warm with a steady fire of domestic decoration and serve with peaches and cream. Thus prepared, they will keep for years.

Note: I substituted strawberries for the peaches and mine has been preserved for almost 50 years now!
