[Northkeep] Fw: [mooneschadowe] Magdalena's Vigil

[Stephanie Drake]

Greetings All, 

Mylisant asked me if I would forward this to the Northkeep list.  She also asked if anyone might have some sort of screen they would be willing to bring for Magdalena to use - 

"As an odd request, Maggie wants to be sitting in the hall able to
hear and possibly see the party, but somewhat screened to the side.  Do
you know if anyone has a silk-wall-screen (or even what such a thing is 
properly called) that they might be willing to bring/lend?"

I also thought that one of those tri-fold carved wooden screens would probably work.

Thanks!

Mercedes

Magdalena's vigil
Senhora Magdalena da Cadamosto has been invited to join the Order of the
Laurel.

She will be having her vigil at Namron Protectorate, during the evening
and night of Oct 14/15 at the Wolf Lodge, prior to her elevation in
Sunday morning court.  The vigil is intended to be a party with food and
drink and singing and merriment, with Magdalena in a corner with
well-wishers.  You are invited. 

I will be organizing/coordinating things, and since many people have
asked about helping with food or drink, I'm going to try and give some
guidelines, but please, email and let me know what you'd like to bring. 
Many of us who enjoy period nibbles or imbibing will be making something
special to share; please label it so that everyone can ask you for the
recipe:).  Others who like to pick stuff up at the store, your
contributions are welcome, too.  So here's some guidelines.  First, NO 
SPINACH.  Second, foods should be not-blatantly-non-period, except that
chocolate is all good.  So your home-made chocolate chip cookies or
brownies are good, nuts or cheese or vegetables are good, rice tarts
from a Forme of Cookery are good, but the bag of potato chips or bowl of
M&M's are not what's in mind.

If you'd like to help with "labor", we'll be decorating after the A&S
competition closes, want people signed up to refresh the food and drink 
occasionally, and want people to act as gatekeepers for an hour or so
for the actual vigil visiting (ie. taking names and letting people know
when it's their turn).  If you have a period chair, please bring it.

My contact information is westcott at cox.net or you can call 405-377-4053.

thank you,
Mylisant de Impinton (Millie)
