I no longer use as much mayo as once I did, having lost interest in the extra

cool lunch on hot days.


I've gone to cream cheese and sour cream for my devilled eggs. Still
put mayo in my sandwich salads -- I think. It's been a while since I
made one.

One of these years I'm going to try the recipe for "cooked dressing"
in an old home-ec book I found. I remember Mom making boiled
dressing, but don't remember eating it. The book suggests it for all
the uses we now make of mayo, and treats it as a fundamental recipe --
white sauce and cornstarch pudding had taken over that role by the
time I took home ec.
