You are thinking of doing this during NEXT year at Pennsic and not this year,
right? Or do you just mean to start talking about it during Pennsic. If the
latter is the case and you will be doing it at a time other than Pennsic, I
have to ask just how far into Meriedies are you? And how do I get tickets? :-)

Perhaps the report of this feast which was done in Lochac can give you some
ideas. It seems to be much closer to what you are looking for than most SCA
feasts. I'm sure you are aware that this will be a very labor instensive
project.

I think you also might get some good ideas from this file:
Kentwell-Hall-art (25K)  6/25/98    A period kitchen at a Living History site.

And from this file:
p-menus-msg       (15K)  1/ 6/99    Examples of medieval feast menus.

These files are all in the FEASTS section of my Florilegium.
