Is it common elsewhere to have a feast plan/costs figured out and make an
offer to some autocrat in need of a cook? Or am I misunderstanding the
definition of 'bid'?
For both my feasts, I was asked to cook and accepted because I had a _very_
loose idea that could be worked up into something to suit. The money
decision was a joint discussion of cost factors involving the autocrat,
myself, the seneschal and exchequer, done far enough in advance to allow for
adjustment before the flyer would be published.
