Oops, guilty :). The event was Sworded Affair, and while it was attemted
to remain true to preiod a few of the recipes were undocumented. Much
thanks to all the ideas and recipes from this list. A disclaimer, while I
was the coordinator of the feast, 11 other people were instrumental in
pulling it off. I was attempting a soteltie feast, based on the elements,
with each course assuming one of the aspects. Air did well as did fire
and the desert course, but earth was weak and water lost ground when in a
last minute snafu all the pastry shaped shells and fishes for holding the
chicken recipe proved too broken to be used. The menu is below, and if
anyone really wants to know where the recipes came from I could post that
in a few days. all in all it went well and there seemed to be enouhg food
(ok, maybe I did cook for Farm boys :)) to satisfy everyone.
