The Original Groundhog Day Party

Ours was not the first. Last night Colleen visited our neighbors' house for their annual Groundhog Day party which dates back two generations when Rob's dad starting hosting the original party in Akron, Ohio in the 50's. We wonder if there are any Groundhog potluck parties that predate this one?

Our kindred spirits - we share an affinity for whales.

Dook Dook Dook! Delicious hard cider! (Not sweet)
And the winner is....
Johnny and Gillian for Most Tuberlicious Dish - A Cassava Dessert. Yum! Johnny won this t-shirt that says, ' I fucking love potatoes'

Natsuko won a cute Tater Toss for her amazing dish Kinpiragobou made of carrots, burdock and lotus roots.
