December 21

The menu suggestion for a fancy dinner this week from 52 Sunday Dinners from 1913 is

Cream of Carrot Soup

Pot Roast with Mushroom Sauce
Browned Potatoes
Parsley Onions
Parsnip Fritters
Creamy Cold Slaw (it's what we'd call coleslaw vegetables mixed with a dressing that includes sour cream)

Steamed Snowballs with Sauce Soufflé (these are some sort of steamed pastries served with an orange-flavored sauce, though they suggest an alternative of serving them "in nests of whipped cream sweetened and flavored with vanilla," wow!)
Coffee, Tea
