Hi Hap,

-> Yes but hopefully it's a lesson learned.  Buying new often saves a lot
-> of maintainence problems (and costs) up front.

 HN> Saw them yesterday...just sitting there doing nothing, I hope they are
 HN> not getting disillusioned about the project!

Maybe you should have stopped in and given them a pep talk, let them
know how much you're looking forward to patronising them.

->  HN> Snagged! I'll try and make it sometime this month as a suprise for
->  HN> her! ->

-> It's a good one; this is the 2nd time I've done this version (used to do
-> it in the crock pot).  After trying out this way with the cast iron
-> dutch oven, we decided it's a keeper.

 HN> all I have to do is get the juniper berries! Maybe it will make it to
 HN> the Thanksgiving table!

Check some of your upscale stores. They could be omitted if you can't
find any but it wouldn't taste quite the same.  No, throwing in a shot
of gin wouldn't work so don't even think about it. (G)

->  HN> they all (girls and guys) are so goal oriented they seldom lift

-> So maybe the volunteer work elsewhere will yield one?

 HN> Maybe, I try not to push her in any direction, she'll get around to it
 HN> when she's ready, and I really would rather have her happy in one
 HN> relationship than unhappy in several!

Very true.  And it may take a while to find that right person.  Steve
and I met at age 18 but waited almost 4 years to get married. Rachel met
David at the beginning of sophomore year in high school; they got
married a year after graduation.  OTOH, I've got siblings that are still
single and show no indication they will ever get married.

-> -> as well as a gazillion other things.

->  HN> Yep lots of chores! Anne is going down to spend the day with her
->  HN> sister, one of their cousins died this week (a NYC police officer)

-> Ouch! Our sympathies to her.

 HN> Funeral was yesterday, very tough on the family back in New
 HN> York...lots of his co workers showed up in uniform. Now the healing
 HN> can begin.

Yes, but it will take a while, given the unexpectedness of the death.

-> bunch of other stuff, including turkey bacon from Fresh Market.  They
-> had a holidays feast set up in the store on Saturday featuring some of
-> the store products.  We had a sampling of the carrot souffle (not really
-> pumpkin roll) and chocolate yule log. Oh, and Steve had the cranberry
-> relish (enjoyed it).  It just needed a good glass of iced tea to wash it

 HN> Sounds like a whole Thanksgiving feast!

It was, actually.  You got tasting size samples of as much of it as you
wanted--about 2-3 bites worth of most things, more on some, less on
others.
