SHE TAKES THE CAKE, moist and fragrant, from her oven.
Mrs. Haggstrom's hobby is baking.
Mrs. Haggstrom Is A Baker
Swcdi~h-born Margaret
ttaggstronl came to lhe United
Slates in 1916, and her lirst home
in tills country was in Alder,
Washington. She lived in Tacoma
from 1920 unlil 1965 when she
moved to her present home on
Mason l_akc.
She and her husband, Joe,

Mrs. Haggslrom is a niember
of the Seventh Day Adventist
Church and o! the Mason-Benson
Fire Depart mcnt auxiliary, to
whose rumu/age and bake sales she
is a generous contributor.
Two bake sales are held
annually at the Mason-Benson Fire
tlall, and for the last she baked 90
cinammon mils.
"Baking is in}' hobby," she
explains. -and 1 bake my own
bread and cmammon rolls, which
1 k eep on hand always. My
husband has two cinammon rolls
with coffee for his lunch every
day and 1 am never without
them."
Crocheting and quilt-making
are among her handicrafts. She
makes afghans, doilies and fancy
potholders, many of which she
donates to the sales sponsored by
her organizations.
While residing in Tacoma,
Mrs. Haggstrom enjoyed paying
visits to the aged in nursing
homes. She brought cookies to
them and for these lonely people
performed small favors.
"1 enjoyed talking to them,"
she declared," and 1 considered
the tittle well spent ."
t:rom relatives in Sweden,
Margaret tlaggstrom has received
interesting gifts. Fhere is a set of
butter knives carved from "Em
Buske" wood, a shrub: a clay bird
that produces music in the
manner ol a flute; carved wooden
deer; hand-loomed table runners.
She has fashioned a clever
quilt of cotton materials and
nylon stockings. Each three-inch
square is made like a tiny pillow,
stuffed with a stocking, and tied
through the center, when stitched
together, the resulting quilt is
attractive, light in weight, warm
and completely washable.
"It requires a lot of nylons,"
Mrs. Ilaggstrom states "and it
takes a long time to make one,
but it is the sort of project one
can work on leisurely."
Margaret tfaggstrom collects
recipes, but very few of them are
from books. She prefers old family
recipes, or those acquired from
other cooks.
A favorite angel food glaze is
made by browning half a cube of
butter to which is added
powdered sugar until the desired
consistency is obtaiCted:'~She"
makes chod01ate chip cookies
w~th the substitution of two cups
of Special "K" cereal instead of
nuts.
She bakes a fruit tart by
combining a large can of
well-drained fruit cocktail, an egg,
a cup of sugar, a cup of flour, and
a teaspoon each of salt and soda.
She spreads the mixture into a
buttered pan and tops it with a
blend of chopped walnuts and
brown sugar, a half-cup of each. It
is baked at 325 degrees from 25
to 35 minutes, depending on size
of pan. When cool, it is cut into
squares and served with whipped
cream.
She contributes two more
recipes, both family favorites.
