It was a very agreeable event.  I had a chance to chat with Jadwiga 
and Adamantius, and with other folks.  Took several interesting 
classes (only one food-related), and lunched from a very well-
executed dayboard.  Bread, butters, herb cheese, compost, apples 
and pears, sausages, soups (chicken and something vegetarian 
with peas)... all tasty, and efficiently replenished.

I would never have thought of putting food in an A&S display, 
except that a lady on another list inquired if the table would be 
watched, so that she could leave a bottle of wine out for sampling.  
I put out a big plate of peach pits, along with copies of the recipe.  
They were well-received, and though I had brought along baggies to 
package leftovers, it proved not to be  necessary.  :-)
A lady from Ostgardr (Andrea, I think) had put out a platter with 
samples of four relishes she'd redacted from Platina.  All were 
delicious, and the platter was very attractively arranged and 
garnished.  My only quibble is that the individual dishes were not 
labelled, so I had to guess which was which, based on the recipes.

And then we drove home, while my lord husband listened to reports 
of the great battle in Ostgardr.
