Hi Jean

Yes, there were several people from clan Bailey who helped in Mary's Kitchen this year. My husband, John was one. Our friends Geneva and Tom Cook also helped. I think their children Katrena and Jason also helped in the kitchen. They had fun helping. I was busy helping Douglas with the sword classes we did. That was fun too.

I am very sorry to hear that you needed to be towed home last night. I hope everything is working now.

Best Regards,

Denise

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Did someone from our class help in "Mary's Kitchen" at The Oregon
Scottish Society's "Scottish Heritage Festival?"

Sitting at the Pacific Pride gas station in Oregon City last night
waiting for the tow truck to come tow me home after our class, I called
my step-mom, Mary, to thank her for renewing my (gift) AAA card.
Although it was 10pm, we chatted for a few minutes. I told her about
our class and she asked if it was the same group who was at the Festival
in Albany in April. She said she thought someone from that group helped
in the kitchen. Whoever you are, THANK YOU!

My step-mom is the Mary of "Mary's Kitchen." She has taught at OSU for
around 45 years, specializing in the history and culture of foods around
the world. She also happens to be of Clan Wallace, to the point of
having the maiden name of Wallace.

Looking forward to class next week, especially Tuesday!

Jean Kelsey.
