CHAPTER CXLII
THE NEW CAR
"DO stay to dinner, Ruth!" begged Bettina. "Bob is going to drive the new car out when he comes, and we'll have him take us for a spin after dinner."
"Oh, Bettina, has Bob really bought it? Will you really have a car of your own?"
"Yes, indeed, we will. I can hardly realize it myself, and although I'm so happy over it, I have a little haunting fear that perhaps it is too great an extravagance. But we'll enjoy it so!"
"Of course you will. I'm so glad! Won't the summer be delightful when you can get out into the country every day!"
"Ruth, you must stay to dinner and see the car for yourself! I planned a special little celebration dinner, a kind of salad that Bob particularly likes, and a good dessert, too. And now, if you'll come into the kitchen with me, I'll show you how to make peanut butter rolls. You never heard of them? Well, they're a little like pinwheel biscuit. Don't you remember the pinwheel biscuit that I make sometimes--baking powder biscuit dough rolled out and spread with butter and sugar and cinnamon--then rolled up and cut like cinnamon rolls and baked?"
"Of course, I remember, Bettina! They're the best little things, and so easy to make!"
"Well, these peanut butter rolls are like them, but spread with butter and peanut butter. Come into the kitchen and I'll show you how they're made."
For dinner they had:

BETTINA'S RECIPES
(All measurements are level)
Peanut Butter and Fruit Rolls= (Eight rolls)
1-1/2 C-flour 3 t-baking powder 2 T-lard 1/4 t-salt 1/2 C-milk 2 T-peanut butter 3 T-currants 1/2 T-butter
Mix the flour, baking powder and salt thoroughly, cut in the lard with a knife until the consistency of cornmeal. Add the milk, mixing with a knife until a soft dough is formed. More milk may be needed; this depends on the consistency of the flour. Pat into a rectangular shape, on a floured board or on a paper. The dough should be half an inch thick. Cream the butter, add the peanut butter and spread on the biscuit dough. Sprinkle the currants on the top. Roll up carefully, over and over like a cinnamon roll. Cut off pieces half an inch wide and pat them down in a tin pan. Bake eighteen minutes in a moderate oven.
Pear Salad= (Three portions)
3 halves of pears 1/2 C-cottage cheese 1/4 t-salt 1/8 t-paprika 2 T-nut meats 2 dates, cut fine 1 T-pimento, cut fine 5 T-salad dressing 3 lettuce leaves
Mix the cottage cheese, salt, paprika, nut meats, dates and pimento thoroughly. Add two tablespoons of salad dressing. Arrange the pears on the lettuce leaves and place one tablespoon of the mixture on each portion. Place a tablespoon of salad dressing on the top. Serve very cold.
