Christmas Party News
The Chapter put on another great Christmas party this year, once again at
the Hawk building, former home of Sportys Pilot Shop. Attendance was not as
high as expected, due primarily to the flu outbreak. But those who were able
to make it were treated to lots of great food and refreshments. Following a
tradition started a few years ago, the new president, Tom Jenkins, was in
charge of the feast. Great job Tom!
Read Lee Jewell’s account of the festivities in the December chapter meeting
minutes above.
The photos of the festivities below were taken by chapter member Kathie

Gary’s Oriental Cole Slaw Recipe
Gary Collins was deluged at the chapter Christmas party with requests for
his famous Oriental Cole Slaw recipe. Here it is for all to enjoy:
Oriental Cole Slaw
1 bag (16 oz.) Cole slaw - I prefer cabbage slaw
but
broccoli slaw can be used.
1/2 cup shelled, raw sunflower seeds
2 packages Ramen noodles, Oriental Flavor (save
the flavor packets) - I crunch the
noodles by
pounding the packets on the counter with my
hand.
1/2 cup slivered almonds, toasted (do this in a Pam
sprayed skillet on the stove)
Mix together the following ingredients (make sure sugar is thoroughly mixed). The best I can achieve is a sort of slurry which seems to be OK.
1/2 cup sugar
1/4 cup red wine vinegar
3/4 cup vegetable oil
2 flavor packets from Ramen noodles
Just before serving, mix cole slaw ingredients, then pour dressing over the slaw to coat the slaw and achieve desired consistency. I use all of it.
