Did @anon29631895 leave this thread yet? Am I remembering correctly that his French Canadian family also spent their first U.S. generation in Wisconsin? Or was it the U.P.?

I’m pretty sure he said Wisconsin, some bit east of Superior?

Now that you mention it, why didn’t I remember that detail? Didn’t he and I already have a conversation about how close our families’ towns were to each other?

What if we’re all 3rd and 4th cousins to each other (I got 2nd cousins in Merrill, too)?

Did you know I discovered last week that my new dentist’s family are from the same small town in (really) south-west Cornwall as mine - and as such, given the, er, closeness of the Cornish, almost certainly means she’s a cousin of some kind?

Did you know that ALL early heritage French Canadians are, in fact, not-so-distant cousins to each other? Or that the Catholic church kept careful records so that couples getting married were not closer than 2nd cousins, but that still means everyone with that early heritage is multiple cousins to each other as a result?

Have you ever had my buttermilk tie dye waffles?

Does the tie dye add any funky flavor, or is it just for visual effect?

Visual only, but it’s the real buttermilk that clinches the deal, you know?

Well, isn’t that pretty? Don’t you think you should try some kringle to know for yourself which is the best?
