    A question on White Pork.  How do you serve it?  I made the one from
"Take a Thousand Eggs" for my contribution to the Royal Room at Birka this
year (I also did the Blancmang)  I enjoyed it as a spread on bread or
crackers but was wondering how it would have been served in period.
    One thing I need to do is get the name of the Lady who did the majority
of the food, she was a very good cook who does catering on the side, but my
2 dishes were the only period dishes on the day board that I saw.  I want to
invite her to join this list.  I did try to suggest that she might check out
the new copies of "take a 1000 Eggs" that a book dealer was selling.  She is
a good cook who could become a good period cook.
    I was also shocked this year in Court. When as I was shopping (after
finishing my stint at the Troll Booth) Baroness Aine came up & said the
Queen wanted to meet the person responsable for starting Birka, this is not
that uncommon so I went to Court in blyth ignornce.  When I was called into
the Queen's presence I knelt & she took my hands in her's then was amazed to
hear the Herold start speaking.  I was elavated to a Baron of the Court.  I
was in shock for the rest of the event.
Hej!
Baron? Olaf of Trollhiemsfjord
who is wondering what the rank would be in Norse.
