Okay, gang. We're all in place and the cooking is furious. Lots of folks
brought already-fixed and a lot of folks are cooking as I keyboard.

Besides the Bartos (our marvelous hosts) and Charlie (the Chief
Instigator of the Cookins, AFAICS), we have Terry Pulliam Burd and Bill
Burd, Debra Fritz, Patrick and Nancy Mccormack, Rich and Patti
McCormack, David Fetter, Jim Lane, Jamie & Brian Utter, Charlotte,
Blackmer and Cindy Howe. So far. People keep showing up in spurts.

We have an amazing array of food - a veritble "groaning board," as
Katherine Barto said. (Or was it Debra
???)
