ok back in the states...FOR GOOD!!!

I will read over the whole thread and find a creative way for the pairings....

Am I reading this right that the "both Categories" peeps are sending out and receiving 2 separate entries on will be a SO and the other will be anything?...
you guys are making this complicated, I think

BTW FB account is having issues Please add me

For good? WOOHOO! Welcome home, Dennis! Thanks!

They are all SO roasts - The categories are "Guess the origin", the other is a straight swap with origin labels affixed; no guessing involved.

It is rather complicated... Here's an idea... How about we have just a simple pairing regardless of stated preference and let each pair sort it out?

What say all?

John

Simple pairing sounds good to me! I can always ask my wife to hide the labels from me. :-)

Maybe more folks will join in on the fun also! -bill

You can certainly do a blend if you like. I hadn't thought about blends. I'm not a blender, so it escaped me altogether.

I'll play twice.ThumbsUp
