          <description><![CDATA[
One of our pet peeves when we travel and stay at a hotel or motel where breakfast is self-service is their toasters. One of the worst is the kind where a slice of bread is slowly propelled over and under electric coils. I think that type of toaster must be almost 100 years old, or so it seems.&nbsp;

In doing research recently on election cakes, I ran across a strange cookie I had never heard of before &#8212; the funeral cookie or biscuit, as these cookies or biscuits were called in the 17th and 18th centuries. They also were known as funeral tokens.

Foods associated with election campaigns have varied throughout the history of our country. Some have stemmed from the market days of Colonial times. Others evolved from church festivals and from militia parades.

Recently I have been serving barley as an accompaniment to meat or chicken instead of rice, pasta or potatoes. I use the quick cooking variety, which takes only about 10 minutes to cook unless other ingredients have been added as flavor enhancers. Frequently the longer-cooking version of barley is the basis of Beef and Barley Soup, a famous German specialty.&nbsp;

We have seen various images of Beijing while watching the Olympics on television, but we have not discovered much about the food of this capital city of China.

I frequently experiment with recipes and recipe ideas. This was the case the other day, when I was reading about the traditional French Tart Tatin. It is really an upside-down apple tart made with puff pastry. Thus I thought, &#8220;Why not make it with something besides apples?&#8221;

I have noticed that more and more people are including chicken, in one form or another, in their grocery baskets. Is this a sign of the times? It is for Allan and I. We have enjoyed chicken for years, and s we grow older, we are eating less and less red meat.

One of my favorite interests is history, particularly food history. The other day I was wondering about who created our cooking techniques and early cuisines. I often had wondered when and by whom national and ethnic foods came into being. Did they start with the Chinese, Greeks or Romans? Or did they start at about the same time from many sources?&nbsp;

          <description><![CDATA[

I frequently use only use one leek when I make soup or a stew. It gives a sweetness and mild onion-like flavor to the dish and is not as strong as an onion. Occasionally I also use leeks as a vegetable to accompany roast beef. A British friend gave me the recipe, saying that the sweetness of leeks balanced the heavy flavors of roast beef.
