Hi Everyone, A most wonderful cook, Renee Downs, will be cooking an authentic southern dinner at Julianna Quadrozzi's *A Ferret Business of GA* the evening of Thursday, Oct 2nd, just before the start of the Symposium. As one who tasted her Cajun food in Las Vegas, let me tell you this lady can cook up a storm! And all ingredients must be absolutely fresh! LOL. (A bunch of us went shopping with her in Las Vegas.) There will be a raffle and door prizes and an absolutely wonderful time, and did I mention the fantastic food? But, Renee would love some idea of how many will be attending, so she can know how much to prepare...(was Peach Cobbler mentioned?...licking my chops...). Simply e-mail her at [log in to unmask] if you can make the dinner. Hope to see you there! Francine Prager [Posted in FML issue 4212]
