As a Turk of Byzantium I resent and mostly resemble that remark Matthias...You might loose snuggling priviledges for that....

  The Byzantines must have been a very bored society.  Think of all the entertainment/interest they lost by keeping their women completely covered!!!  

  BORING!!!

    Greetings to all!

    It warms my heart to recieve tidings from our Baroness this week in which she tells me of the abundance of revelry and festivities this Beltane past.  I am sorrowful to have missed it.

    I have, however, attempted to use what little spare time I possess for research into my personna's character and origination.  After much study, relflection and discovery that Byzantine women's garments were rather stiff and shapeless, (not to mention EVERY PART OF THE BODY WAS COVERED BUT FOR THE FACE...Including HANDS for heavens' sake!), I realize that the life of a Byzantine woman must not be for me.  

    So, I am at this time undertaking the quest for information on the dress and customs of Medieval women of Morovia and Bohemia.  I'm finding little to go on at this juncture and would love someone to point me in the proper direction...suggested reading, images and patterns, etc...

    I'm hoping that and eastern European personna might allow me to keep Samarrah as my name due to the exposure from trade routes to other cultures.  I must admit, I've become fond of my new moniker.

    Also...would anyone know if there is a "Hair Braiding for Dummies" book in print and where I could get my clumsey little hands on it?  I am quite inept at braiding hair, mine own especially!

    Until Tuesday eve...I bid you all a lovely week's end.

    Samarrah






    FRIENDSHIP PRAYER: 
    May the fleas of a thousand camels infest the crotch of the person who 
    screws up your day and may their arms be too short to scratch... AMEN
