II 975 it was two years ago and in California that Roger Conley came home from his job at high noon and asked of his wife, as he indicated an encircled spot on a Washington State map: "How'd you like to live there?" Two weeks later Vicki Conley, her husband and her children were on their way to Shelton. Roger Conley is manager of the D. H. Knudsen Pole Company on John's Prairie. Mrs. Conley was born in Berkeley, California and reared in Fresno in the same state. There she was graduated from high school and attended Fresno State College. During her college years she was employed as an accountant by a judge, for whom she managed an estate. "I worked my way through school," she states. "At the age of 23 I left college for a good job in the San Francisco Bay area. I felt liberated and I loved it. "I married Roger a year later," she continues. "I quit my job and began the occupation of wife and homemaker. Not until then was 1 truly free. 1 feel completely at liberty within the structure of marriage." The Conleys have three children. Leeana and Margie are five-and-a-half and four years old respectively. Young Wiley is ten months of age. Vicki Lee Conley has a dream. She wishes to further her education and to study law. It is her goal to become a judge before her forty-second birthday. "I'm a dreamer," she laughs, "but I might as well set a high goal. If I achieve it, all else will fall into place," Writing is her first love. She studied journalism in both high school and college, and she writes poems. She enjoys outdoor gardening as well as the growing of house-plants. Two seal-point Siamese cats are very much a part of her family. Mrs. Conley is an active Mormon, teaching three-year-olds in the primary organization of her church. She is a member of Shel-Toa Orthopedic Guild. "Happiness is living in Shelton," she asserts. "We love it here." Vicki Conley is concerned about chemicals in the daily diet. She is interested in the healthful care of the body and believes in natural foods free of preservatives. She feels that prepared mixes and "meals in a box" are luxuries to be enjoyed at the cost of good health. "Starting from scratch in cooking." she declares, "is more healthful and certainly more economical. "Buy clean grains," she urges, "and with the aid of a blender, grind cereal fresh each day. Instead of boxed rice mixtures, try my Rice Pilaf. We're in one store now, you'll find us at... 113 S. Second IS er "This is an Armenian dish," she adds, "and it was very popular in the California area where we formerly lived." She browns in oil one coil of vermicelli and places it in a casserole with one cup of long grain rice, two cups of either chicken or beef broth, a quarter to a half cup of butter or margarine and salt and pepper to taste. The casserole should be covered and placed in a medium hot oven for approximately 45 minutes. "It's quick and easy, good, and good for you," she promises. Here is Vicki Conley's recipe for white bread made with honey: White Bread To a half-cup of very warm water add 2 Tbsp. dry yeast and 1 tsp. sugar. Set aside while mixing: 4 C. potato water, rice water or mixture of both 2 eggs ½ to ¾ C. evaporated milk ½ C. mayonnaise 2 Tbsp. salt ½ C. honey When yeast is dissolved and mixture is bubbly, add to water plness and egg mixture. Sift and mix in 8 C. flour. (Sifting is essential). Sift in another 4 C. flour. Mixture should follow the spoon as it is mixed. Allow to rest for two or more minutes. Then mix again. Next add an additional 2 C. flour and mix well. Turn out on floured cloth and over dough sift necessary portion of 2 C. flour. Knead for 10 to 15 minutes. The dough should not be sticky. Allow to rise until doubled. Punch down and allow to rise once more until doubled. Cut into five parts. Roll four portions into loaves and place in greased glass or aluminum pans. Let rise until dough is just rounding edge of containers. Bake in 350-degree oven for 20 minutes. Decrease temperature to 325 degrees and bake for an additional 20 minutes. The bread is done when it sounds hollow when tapped. Remaining dough should be rolled flat and cut with a jar ring or cutter of equal size into buns. Allow them to rise and bake at 350 degrees for no more than 30 minutes, or until barely browned. Bread should be cooled out of pans, after which it may be wrapped and frozen.
