SC - 12th Night event ideas

December may be a difficult time to get a hall all over the Known World. Here in
Austin, Texas we have been forced to start making reservations more than a year
in advance.

Although you might find some useful food recipes in my Florilegium, I think
you will need to give me some more ideas of the type of foods that you are
interested in before I can recommend any particular file.

In the CELEBRATIONS AND EVENTS section though, these files might have some
useful ideas for you:
12th-nite-msg     (12K)  1/27/99    12th Night celebrations.
holidays-msg      (33K)  8/27/98    Halloween, Samhain, other Medieval holidays.
Yule-msg           (9K)  9/15/98    Yule celebrations.
