 Yes, I agree that thank yous are always in order. Since my "kitchen crew" 
has been myself and 2 close friends from the same household, I made up 
butcher-type aprons for the 3 of us in 1" black and white checky fabric. The 
fabric represents our household and the aprons sure make it easy for anyone 
wandering into the kitchen to find someone with a clue to ask questions. For 
this last feast, we had a new helper, only been in the Province/SCA for about 
a year, but she spent an entire day pre-feast deboning chickens, a duck and a 
turkey for the feast. On feast day I surprised her with her own checky apron 
and asked her to be an honorary household member for the day. I later heard 
that the apron meant so much to this graduating culinary arts student that 
she wore it to prepare her final exam dinner at school. We have many other 
folks that help in the kitchen most of the day and tell me that it is just a 
fun, low stress, place to spend the event. Go figure.
