BEDROOM MEALS
THE ART OF SETTING TRAYS. One would not think that it was difficult to set a tray nicely for an invalid’s meal, yet experience teaches that few people know how to do this. To begin with, when setting a. trav they develop a mania for using odds and ends of crockery which do not match, lor-sending up hot food in an uncovered dish, and for forgetting some of the necessary articles. As trays have to be taken, upstairs at one time or another in every house, keep a. suitable outfit ready. This consists of one or two trays’, clean tray cloths and table napkin (these may be of paper if preferred), salt, pepper, mustards; spoons, forks, and knives; toast rack, butter dish, and knife ; covered soup bowl, covered dish or hotplate and cover; glass water-jug and sugar bowl, and the necessary plates. J'or breakfast and tea have a set to match ; select all articles of email size and as light in weight as possible. Be sure that hot plates and dishes ate really hot nothing is more unappetising than half-cold iWd.
