[Ansteorra] LAND: Feast Hall Wish-List (a little long/complex)

[Chass]

Seating seems to be a major topic, being from Northern Ansteorra, I have not 
seen many large feasts where seating 150 is too many. I have a problem with 
bench seating since I have back problems (other than being in a chair).. my 
seat has to have a back.  I saw a hearth that I fell in love with and am 
thinking of having one built in my home...hmm cooking for an event by hearth 
fire.  Hmm having cooked at events and talked to allot of cooks I know that 
the kitchen is a major undertaking, with needing a walk in cooler as well as 
a freezer is a omg nice thing, and having more than 1 oven big enough to 
handle multi loves of bread... The charging stations and such would be there 
lol as I am confined to a powerchair myself. My encampment is always open as 
is almost always a bottle of wine (lets face it we have all gone to dry 
sites lol), currently I am waiting upon my Almond Mead to finish setteling. 
Ahh stories I do love storied by the camp fire, singing too.. thats why a 
certain group says roaving bards have to come to my camp last lol, they tend 
to stay.
