Hi list, As of this morning, there are now 25 of us sharing information - small but special group! Welcome to all our new subscribers - PLEASE POST whatever you know, wherever you are stuck and let us get to know you! We have already had plenty of evidence that WIT is a DEWHURST trait, and the more we all let each other know each of us, the better we can understand ourselves. We hail from Ireland, England, USA, Canada and Australia, so far - let me know if I missed any countries/continents. Personally, I am trying to "get with" the upcoming season (in the "bleegh" mode so far...) and thought perhaps we could all give ourselves a Thanksgiving Treat. We cannot gather as an extended family in person but perhaps we could share our favorite DEWHURST STORIES or RECIPES and post them in a Thanksgiving BLITZ??? I suspect that in sharing our stories we will all know why we belong in this clan! Suggested conversation starters: 1)Tell us a story of a DEWHURST relative; good, bad, funny, sad - all accepted! 2)Tell us of your travel experiences to "unearth" DEWHURSTs anywhere, anytime 3)DO pass along any RECIPES that originated with your DEWHURST roots 4)Tell us about any holiday traditions that you consider to have DEWHURST roots Got anything else you'd rather share? Share it! It doesn't have to be long and you now have 2.5 weeks notice to prepare! Write something up and begin posting WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER 25th (while the pies are in the ovens in the USA).... Just think, you have always intended to get "that story" written down... here is your chance! Jana Black Listowner, DEWHURST-L
