Honorable mention goes out to the Kenworthy family, who celebrated their Thanksgiving with a round of Whynattes.

Monica Kenworthy brewed up a batch of the old family Whynatte recipe, handed down through the generations by the family patriarch, Jebediah Kenworthy. As the story goes, Jebediah enscribed the first Whynatte recipe on a cape made of gnu parchment. Old family documents tell us that Jebediah made a round of 400 Whynattes, which through their warmth helped to save his entire village from the bitter Slovenian winter of 1840. Jebediah wore the enscribed cape through the Macedonian war of 1843, and then passed it along to his son Soloman, who bequeathed said cape to his son Seymour, who then passed it along to its current owner, Andy Kenworthy. On his death bed, Seymour clutched Andy’s arm, and said to him, “Do never forget thy cape. Be proud of thy cape. Through this cape, give the Whynatte to the world, and make it a better place”.

Andy currently resides in Atlanta, GA. and gives cape tours at the family home every Monday @ 5pm.

The Whynatte vein runs deep in the Kenworthy family, and for this we honor their rich heritage with the following photo montage:

Hello littler feller, it’s time to make us some Whynattes.

Monica Kenworthy is so excited by the thought of her husband wearing the family cape, that she barely notices the half devoured leg in front of her eyes.
