AnnaS - what a great idea you have to celebrate AWAD's birthday.

About resurrecting a favorite thread...I am afraid that with the 35 or so regular posters this might be a tad cumbersome with too much threads popping up with a NEW tag.

How about if we combine your and Jackie's suggestions this way...create a HAPPY BIRTHDAY thread. Anyone who wants to, can post either, a Thank-you to Anu, the reason why they like being here, a link to a favorite thread, and a celebratory regional recipe (or all four if they wish).

That way all the wishes will be neatly under one thread.

To get Anu to see it is an other matter...maybe wow or Jackie, who HAVE had success getting his attention, can send him a note saying "YOU MUST LOOK IN AWAD CHAT INFORMATION AND ANNOUNCEMENTS ON MARCH 15TH"

We should get someone in NZ to start the Happy Birthday thread since they turn to the 15th before we do.

What do you think?

Oh and Jackie, tsk-tsk-tsk, outrageously flirting with Bill. I thought you had left us poor souls in the gutter.
