Down-home fare is already the subject of several timely cookbooks, including Miss Mary's Down-Home Cooking by Diana Dalsass (New American Library), Prudhomme's Louisiana Kitchen (Morrow) and Joan Nathan's An American Folklife Cookbook (Schocken). The most impassioned paean to Momma cooking is Jane and Michael Stern's Square Meals (Knopf). In their march down memory lane, the authors celebrate dishes from what many people rightfully consider the Dark Ages of American eating: tuna casseroles sauced with canned mushroom soup, Back-to-Bataan Spam and patently disgusting creations like a cabbage-apple-and-pickle salad with evaporated...
Prince Charles and Princess Diana are a handsome and delightful young couple who have the good fortune to be living a real-life fairy tale. Their appeal is universal.

The majority of Americans, who do not live in either Washington, D.C., or Palm Beach, Fla., realize that the visit is inconsequential, a prime example of a media-created event. Jack W.

The beautifully detailed production moves with ease from the grand country estate of Lord and Lady Dedlock (Robin Bailey and Diana Rigg) to the drab chambers of Chancery and into the sad, grimy streets of London slums. South African Director Ross Devenish shot much of the drama in moody semidarkness, with scenes lit only by the soft glow of a lantern or the flickering of candlelight...
...live in the area where the Dale Burr murders occurred. Within a 100-mile radius, I know of three similar fatalities. It is sad that it took this tragedy to make national news. Thank you for making the world realize how bad the farming situation is. Diana Olgier Lewis Muscatine, Iowa...
