ANST - largess

[Elizabeth Zimmerman]

The first event I ever entered anything into an Arts & Sciences
competition, I received largess.  I had a needlepoint I had done of one of
the Cluney Lady & the Unicorn tapestries (Scent for those that are
interested).  I did not win.  It was one by a beautiful sword.  when I went
up to collect my needlepoint I found a beautiful silver amethyst pin,
pinned to a white card that said largess.  Being new to the society, I
asked my daughter Simone what largess meant.  I have to admit I
mispronounced it.  My daughter smiled at me and said it meant I done good. 
It turned out it was a gift from the Laurels who were judging the
competition.  It was beautiful and I felt greatly honored and humble.  It
also encouraged me to continue pursing my art.
