>Greetings...I wanted to thank everyone who responded to my request for
>suggestions about an edible castle.  I have shared everything with the
>castle builder and hopefully something edible will be produced for Thier
>Majesties at Crown.
>I am seneschal here in Graywood and I am feastocrating the fifteenth
>aniversary of our shire event the first weekend in May.  Crown is three
>weeks later. The last time my shire did Crown,  I was the feastocrat and I
>had a BLAST. This time, three Ladies that I have been sharing my knowledge
>of cooking(such that it is) with over the last couple of years, will be
>doing the feast.  I know it sounds strange, but I feel almost like I did
>when my first child started Kindergarden:-) The bittersweet thing you get
when you just aren't needed like you once were.

>But anyway, of course I have a question.

>I have a recipe from "Curye on Inglysch" for apple/pear tarts.  What kind
>of apples and pears should I use to get the kind of results the medieval
