Kate Aitken: Sunday dinner
Broadcast Date: Nov. 19, 1948
The weekend approaches, and with it, delicious weekend dinners. On this 1948 Friday edition of her CBC Radio program, Kate Aitken shares a recipe for a Sunday dinner of chicken wrapped in bacon and baked in a seasoned sour cream sauce. She and co-host Mac McCurdy discuss reading primers for children and take listeners to Granby, Que., where weekly well-baby clinics have made it the Ogilvie town of the week.Kate Aitken: Sunday dinner
