The puppies had a great day of training Saturday at the Beechland Preserve. Many in attendance witnessed our hounds and puppies chasing foxes up close and personal, as we spent the morning foxhunting on foot. Thank you to our puppy sponsors who donated more than $1800 for the hounds: Mary Finney, Lisa Langenhennig, Kathy and Mark Giewant, Jeanine Hinson, Ed and Katherine Mitchell, Merri and Steve Musso, Christel and Doug Stanley, Tim Watson, and, of course, Jerel Johnson who sponsored the "best in show" for the day, Mischief.

And thank you, Jerel, for sharing your winnings with PAH! Kris G donated a delicious homemade breakfast buffet of soups and entrees with help from The Awesome Event Committee which included coordinator Merri Musso, Helen Bingham, Kathy Giewant, Lisa Langenhennig, Allison Harcourt, Theresa Gregory, Jeanine Hinson, Tim Watson. Thank you all for your hard work! Out of 8 total entries, the flask contest was won resoundingly by Sue Blackmore (Recipe coming next week). Anne Wilson Gregory won 2nd place with her Thanksgiving Margarita, and will end our enews with that recipe.

    

Thanksgiving Margarita,  Anne Wilson Gregory

To make ONE single margarita:

2 ounces apple cider

1.5 ounces pear nectar

1.5 ounces gold tequila

1 ounce triple sec

Cinnamon stick garnish (Pete Sweet discovered that it enhances flavor if cinnamon stick steeps a bit)

Coat rim of glass in simple sugar liquid first; then press into cinnamon sugar.
