SC - re: seating by precedence

[Marilyn Traber]

I have, in  my english[yech, ptui] copy of Larousse Gastronomie a spiffy picture of  a renaissance feast  with 20 or so people, each seated around the perimeter of a huge set of tables set up in a U shape, each with their own footman, table  settings, nef and  the whole  schmere. I would love to   recreate
oneof these  high court dinners-say a nice evening  with Catherine Di Medici. Unfortunately I once sat down  and figured out  a  menu and  ingredient list- it would cost each  diner 250$american.Talk about an unrealistic feast idea...

And chances are you'd be taken off to the side by someone who's been in the SCA since before it was the SCA and given a "gentle little talk" about taking things too seriously...
