How's this for RELEVANCE:  TODAY--15 JANUARY in 1535, King
Henry VIII, whom the Pope had once honored as "Defender of the
Faith," declared HIMSELF the Head of the Church in England.

It was still mainly the Catholic religion, which would evolve under
Edward VI and especially under Elizabeth I (1558-1603) into the
CHURCH OF ENGLAND, or ANGLICAN CHURCH, with an
episcopal hierarchy but heavily influenced by Protestant beliefs
from Continental Europe.

By the way, I LOVE Haggis but get a bit ill when Scottish BLOOD
Pudding is on my BREAKFAST plate!!

As someone with extensive Bavarian and Prussian heritage, I thnk I
can find a generations-old family recipe for GERMAN POTATO SALAD
if the person looking for one would write me off-list at [log in to unmask]
