Dotsie, these reunions began about 18 years ago as an alternative to getting together at Christmas (so my brothers could enjoy staying home with their children and not worry about travelling in that crazy winter weather). The reunions were always just for our immediate family (Mom, Dad, brothers, spouses and children). The number one rule about the reunion is that they had to be held in neutral territory so that nobody got burdened with the bulk of the cooking, cleaning and expense...there is a very good reason for stipulating that particular rule!

So for about 18 years, we've picked a different town in Ontario and stayed at a motel/hotel. Up until two years ago, the reunions were always at Thanksgiving. But the cost of staying anywhere at Thanksgiving was getting too prohibitive for most of us, especially those with children in university. So we cancelled the 2005 reunion in order to change the timing to a weekend in the summer. This year we're going to a lodge in Parry Sound (on Georgian Bay) near the end of August. This will be the first reunion away from restaurants and shopping facilities (eating and shopping together have always been key [and fun] elements of our reunions!) so it will be interesting to see how we manage.

(The year that Mom was in hospital here in Ottawa, we had the reunion here, with most of the family staying at our house. It was very hectic and reinforced our need to re-establish the original number one rule for the reunions! We do have most of the family here for a week every Christmas and often another week in the summer, so hubby and I have decided that twice a year is enough!)

I have a big smile on my face right now. I'm glad to hear all of you enjoyed or are going to enjoy this easy yet fun recipe and Sammie is thrilled that her fan club loved them! Wish we could have been there to be a part of the fun!

Dotsie what no one seems to understand is that my free time is terribly limited as I work at Mystic Publishers office on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays. I do the Nursing Home on Thursdays and my editing on Tuesdays at home while answering a dozen or more phone calls. I try to keep Saturday free for grocery shopping, hair cuts, and whatever else pops up during the week. When I have nothing in house to edit I jump into BWS and NABBW to post. In between all this other stuff theres going to Tai Chi and to exer-walk the pool. I should weight 95 pounds with all the stuff I do and yet seem to find enough time to stuff my fat face and be overweight, because I eat at night once I have stood still for awhile. Thats why I am unable to meet with some of the "vacationing" women who come here. I know no one understands but I refuse to go to the strip during the daytime when the traffic is insane. I just don't have enough free time for all that. I would meet with them if they would come off the strip nearer to my area, there are many casinos here too. I am not on vacation, I live and work here....I should be retiring and it seems I'm working harder than ever.
