Hi Nancy,

 NB> that the  RH>> first baby came.
 NB>  NB>> Needed a different incentive to base the treat on...  :)

 RH> Yes, like just getting all of us out of the house for something other
 RH> than church or grocery shopping. (G)

 NB> That can work..  ;)

Could have, but didn't usually. That was in the time fram when Steve
lost his job, new one he got was further away and paid less so money was
tighter.


 NB>  RH>> I understand. There's an ice cream shop around the corner from
 NB> where  RH>> we are now, we've stopped a few times on Wednesday nights.
 NB> We won't be  RH>> doing that after we move as it's the wrong
 NB> direction.
 NB>  NB>> Or at least you'd have to purposefully go there...  :)

 RH> But not until spring, most likely now. It's in the lower 40s but the
 RH> rain is moving on, and up to the northeast where it's supposed to dump
 RH> a lot of snow. The Catskills will get it this time around.

 NB> Once again, we were only on the edges of the storm... haven't heard
 NB> any details on anything from the storm regions, either...  A lot of
 NB> ice
 NB> cream places close up for the winter... the little stand I was talking
 NB> about stays open year-round, but you have to go inside instead of
 NB> getting things at the window...

I don't know if the drive thru window stays open year round on this one
or not, we always go inside.


 RH> But not tomorrow. We're contributing turkey, rolls, a couple of relish
 RH> trayes, cranberry sauce and some pumpkin bread I made today, one loaf
 RH> with nuts, one without.  Steve's mom sent a pumpkin muffin recipe that
 RH> I modified (kicked up the spicing, added nuts) and baked in mini
 RH> disposable pans as my muffin pans are packed up.

 NB> Makes for less cleanup that way, too..  :)   What did other people
 NB> bring...?

The usual sides--dressing, mashed potatoes and gravy, green bean
casserole, a pumpkin dessert, an apple dessert. We sent the one family
home with a good bit of turkey, a bag of rolls and the rest of the
pumpkin bread. It'll be easier for them to heat and eat; they had a new
baby about a month ago and have other little ones.
