Hello List -- I just finished baking some Date Squares for my son who lives in Texas. They will go in the mail this week along with the recipe that was my Grandmother's, Isabella Maude Crane from Carbonear, Newfoundland. Every year Christmas, to me and my Father, was Date Squares. Any one up for stories and or recipes of Christmas? Last year we were able to get some listeners to share stories about quilts and sewing projects. All of these things are part of the genealogy picture since we create people and not just dates and places. Happy Holidays, Maureen Horton Taylor

Hi Maureen I, for one, would so love the recipe you have for Date Squares..... if you would be so willing to share it???? I make my own quilts. Just love anything like that and also would love to hear from people who are involved in projects like this. Anything to do with sewing, I just love. I know some people on the list don't like to stray from the norm of genealogy....but for over Christmas......could we just stray a bit?????? A very Merry Christmas to the Listers and the very best for 2007. Rae Martin............nee Flynn, ancestor's from St. John's. Niagara Falls, Ontario.
